I Must Be Doing Something Right

Daughter: Mom, we're not going to Mass today, are we?

Me: No, we usually don't go on Saturdays.

Daughter: Can I go to confession?

Me: Of course. You can walk over to church with your sister this afternoon.

Daughter: Good. I want to bring the flowers I picked for Mary.

Me (a little dense, I guess): Mary who?

Daughter (with a hint of exasperation): Jesus' mom!

Thank you, Lord, I must be doing something right!

Wednesday Wit

Yesterday The Younger of the Girls caught me staring at The Baby asleep in her swing and asked what I was doing. I explained to her that I found great joy in watching my children sleep. I told her that each night before I get in bed I bless each child and spend some time staring at how beautiful each one is. Always one to catch me on a technicality, my daughter reminded me that staring is impolite! ; )

Here are three of my favorite pictures of The Boy sleeping.

on the floor. in his fort. under his bed.

Have a wonderful Wednesday!
