  I’ve been wondering the same thing.
  
  You know, I’m a little low on yarn… LOL.
  
  Maybe a ball winder. I have extra hands around, so I wouldn’t need a swift.

Real Health Care Respects Life
Go, Pack, Go!!
Christ did not promise an easy life.

Those who desire comforts

have dialed the wrong number.

Rather, he shows us the way to great things,

the good, toward an authentic life.

—POPE BENEDICT XVI,

Address to German Pilgrims, April 25th, 2005.

People listen more willingly

to witnesses than to teachers,

and when people do listen to teachers,

it is because they are witnesses.

It is therefore primarily

by the Church’s conduct,

by living witness

of fidelity to the Lord Jesus,

that the Church will evangelize the world.

This century thirsts for authenticity…

Do you preach what you live?

The world expects from us

simplicity of life,

the spirit of prayer,

obedience,

humility,

detachment

and self-sacrifice.

—POPE PAUL VI,

Evangelization in the Modern World, n. 41, 76
Prayer for a New Bishop

Father, you have given us your Son, Jesus Christ to teach, sanctify and govern your people. You also gave us the gift of your Holy Spirit so that we may forever remain One in your name.

We thank you for our past bishops who have served the Church of Central Texas.

Father, we ask that you look with favor upon those in our church, who will prayerfully select our new bishop. Give them a Spirit of wisdom and counsel that they may discern your will.

We ask in the name of your Son, that you bless our future bishop. Provide him with the gifts he will need to carry on the ministry of Jesus in our diocese.

Grant him the heart of your Son, the heart of the Good Shepherd. Bestow upon him the zeal of St. Paul in preaching the Good News; the humility of St. John Vianney in ministering the sacraments; the compassion of St. Vincent DePaul in serving those most in need; and the wisdom of St. Augustine in teaching the doctrine of our church.

We ask this through the intercession of Mary, our Mother and Model, and our Lady of the Immaculate Conception, patroness of our diocese. Amen.
A bit About Me

Welcome to my blog!
For the past 44 years I have been a child of God.

For the past 25 years I have been the wife of Chief.

For the past 24 years I have been "Mom".

I am a brand new mother-in-law who loves her daughter-in-law as her very own flesh and blood.

I am a grandma, first grandchild due May 2010!

For the past 21 years, I have tried to learn my faith and take it seriously.

For the past 18 years, I have been a Texan.

For the past 16 years I have been a homeschooler.

For the past 9 years I have been a knitter.

For the past 2 years I have been a small-time, personal blogger.

I am pleased that you have stopped by my little corner of cyberspace where I sometimes write about my family, what I'm thinking, what I'm doing and where I hope to be going as my family and I become what we are!

God bless you!
