Such Fun Preparing for the Mothers' Retreat!

Professional help filling the gift bags. . .

Brilliant team of techies working on PowerPoints. . .

Me, cutting the banner that the company goofed, since I can't remember how to use a sewing machine!  When in doubt, use SCISSORS!

It has been such a joy, preparing for this retreat.  May God be with all the women there tomorrow! 

Annie Says She Is Going To Be a Nun

Annie has her heart set on being a nun!  She cries whenever she thinks about it.  She gets very emotional and solemn.  She hugs me for a long time.

Here is a letter she wrote to a nun:

Sebastian is a Guardian Angel

Boxing Match

   After friend Michael challenged Jacob to a boxing match, and after months of hype, we finally had the showdown in our backyard.  The fighters were neck and neck the whole time.  Here is a picture of Jacob taking Michael to his knees!

The fiercest boxer, however, was Sebastian, who is a roaring lion in boxing gear!

Upcoming Retreat

We are so excited to be offering a retreat for Catholic mothers at St. Rita Catholic Community in Dallas on March 24th, from 8am-3pm.  We will have Mass, Confession, inspiring talks, Adoration, beautiful music, and a Mother's Mission Statement Workshop.  It is a chance to restore, re-charge, and re-focus so that you can become the best mom God made you to be.  Please register at: catholicmothersretreat.com
