On Recreation





"Recreation is not being idle; it is easing the wearied part by change of occupation. To re-create strength, rest. To create mind, repose. To re-create cheerfulness, hope in God, or change the object of one's attention to some more elevated and worthy of thought."

~Simmons

Miss Posy in Polka~Dots.....





Finally got this apron ( I bought the kit several years ago!) made up for Miss Posy. The fabric was a bit thin, so I lined it with a beautiful matching pink linen that I just happened to have languishing in my stash. ~Love it when it works like that! She is thrilled, in case you can't tell from the pictures, and whenever we do dishes she runs to put it on.
Love my girl.

On Spiritual Life




"God does not want our spiritual life to be a constant stress, uneasy, foggy, stormy. He loves peace and joy and spiritual gaiety. We often offend other people without meaning to do so. But God knows us through and through and understands what we mean. We never offend Him unless we want to offend Him."


~Fr. Lasance
