In the Tomb with Jesus

The other day Bella climbed down into the kneeler and declared, “I’m in the tomb with Jesus.” It came out of the blue and totally stunned me.   She did it again later and this time Sophie joined her, both of them chanting, “I’m in the tomb with...

No More Monkeys…

We were singing No more monkey this morning. Then I stopped singing to go make lunch. Bella made up her own version. Bella’s version: (As transcribed by me. This is word for word) There was two little girls jumping on the table. Their mother...

On Sunday we finally got to meet my new niece, Zelie Marguerite. And we celebrated her reception into the church as she was baptized during the morning Mass at St Adelaide’s in Peabody. She is so beautiful. I am in love with those wide eyes...
