"Ah Ha!" Moment

The last few weeks Jimmy has started throwing toys at me and has started pushing Peter down.  I thought “he’s just going through a mean phase”.  But then I realized tonight when I was getting Peter in his PJs that Jimmy only threw toys at me when I was doing stuff with Peter, like change [...]

Peaches

I’m very grateful for peaches! I haven’t had peaches in a long time. This week when there were peaches at the store I bought a whole bag.

Prayer Rug

A few weeks ago for my Fe En Dios activity we made prayer rugs.  It was fun.  There was extras so I made one too.  It’s been great.  I put it next to my bed and I remember to pray all the time now.
