{Pretty Beautiful}...

A beautiful morning of quiet devotion

(BIG SIGH)

{Happy}

Each week the kids choose an extra special intention from the family prayer jar. 

This week they chose our godparents (theirs and ours).

This is Rose making a special pop up card for her Ninos.  In this picture Cecilia's card to her Nino can be seen.  I wonder if he already received it?  It's my brother who lives a few hours north of us.  Hmmm, I think I'm going to give him a call soon...

Once they get the cards we hope they bring 'happy' thoughts to them ;-)

(I have NO idea why this picture kept downloading sideways, UGH)

This is the family prayer jar.  All our 'special' prayer intentions go in here; in the beginning of Lent the kids wrote the names of family and friends that they wanted to pray extra for.  Any little sacrifice would go to those in the jar and one paper gets an 'extra' rosary, or something of the sort, prayed for them.  There's a lot of praying going on around here.  LOL

{Funny}

This girl. 

Let me tell you a little about our Cecilia.

Cecilia is small (in size)

Cecilia is dynamic (in personality)

She LOVES all things girl

She is silly beyond what I expect from a 6 year old

Does the quirkiest things,

like stare at herself in the side mirror just to check what kind of nose she has.

40 Days of Life Spring campaign has started.

Would you offer a prayer for the babies, their parents, the nurses' and doctors?

Thank you.
