Defend us in battle…
As today is a busy, busy day filled with errands, ob-gyn appointment, ultrasound, and lamaze class, I am re-posting (with a few updates!) this post on the feast of the angels from last fall. Enjoy! So tomorrow is one of my favorite feast days in all the Church — the feasts of Sts. Michael, Gabriel, … Continue reading »
Just so you know…
I’ve decided on Atticus! After some input from my husband — which means, he read my post, walked into the room and said, “Don’t call me ‘The Lawyer’, that’s boring!” He’s nothing if not direct.
7 Quick Takes Friday
** 1** My husband (the Lawyer) and I are participating in the 40 Days for Life vigil here in Indianapolis this fall. 40 Days for Life is an international campaign of prayer and fasting to end abortion.

I didn’t understand this, and felt … Continue reading »

My three favorite things for the weekend: Notre Dame football, fall leaves, my husband and dog
7 Quick Takes Friday
** 1 ** Friends, I have had it. What I mean, of course, is that I’ve had it with the shenanigans passing for life in these United States. Though it may seem as though I like posting incendiary information about how the world is going to hell in a handbasket, I actually hate politics, especially … Continue reading »
Saint of the day!
St. Gianna Beretta Molla I had a miscarriage in March. My husband and I are trying again to conceive, but have not yet had success. I read an article about some women who either had high-risk pregnancies or trouble conceiving and were able to deliver healthy babies after praying for St. Gianna’s intercession. So husband … Continue reading »
