I have been exploring Catholicism for awhile now. I collect rosaries, and some Catholic teachings really appeal to me, so it makes sense to explore. One I get caught up on though, is the Catholic requirement to be "open to life" - to not use any form of contraception, and be willing to have more … Continue reading Catholicism and Contraception

Merry Christmas!
From my home to yours, Merry Christmas. We exchanged gifts this morning, and my husband made manicotti for a Christmas meal. Delicious. My present is a gorgeous opal necklace. One of Angelica's presents is a remote control vehicle that can go up walls and on the ceiling. She loves it. She also got Tuttle Twins … Continue reading Merry Christmas!
Why I Tell My Daughter About Hell
A lot of people won't talk to children, especially young children, about hell and the very real possibility of going there. I, on the other hand, have always made it a point to talk about hell as much as I do Heaven. I want my daughter to know there are very real consequences to not … Continue reading Why I Tell My Daughter About Hell
You Should Submit to Your Husband – Twice a Year
Submission is a subject I'm passionate about. I believe that when a wife submits to her husband and to God that her life becomes more beautiful. I grew up in a household with an extremely domineering woman, so I wasn't raised that way. Submission, and headcovering, came to me later when I was already married. … Continue reading You Should Submit to Your Husband – Twice a Year
Getting Rid of Feminism in my Daughter
Last night my daughter was mad at a boy in her class. I mean mad. Why, you ask? Because he said men were stronger than women. In a society where young boys are typically shown horrible models of what manliness is I think it's great if a little boy is proud of being a boy. … Continue reading Getting Rid of Feminism in my Daughter
Christian Creativity
God is THE Creator. Creator with a capital C. And if you're a Christian, you're supposed to strive to be like Him as much as you can. Yet while the most Christians are good with ideas like charity and self sacrifice, few embrace the idea of creativity. Being like God when it is drudgery is … Continue reading Christian Creativity
Femininity
Here is one more blog post I want to preserve from my old site. I arrived in Georgia to stay with my in loves to find that I had two new veils arrive from Liturgical Time. I love them. I got a black infinity veil made from imported French lace, and I got a vanilla … Continue reading Femininity
Celebrating the end of Roe V Wade
It's been shocking to me to see the furious reactions of the pro baby killing crowd. The way they're carrying on you would think we were going to kill their 1st child. Instead we're just telling them that they can't. I have dreamt of this day since I was 12 years old and found out … Continue reading Celebrating the end of Roe V Wade
This Book is Blowing my Mind
Great book on science and God This book is a fascinating read about quantum physics and its potential implications for religion. As a Christian, I sometimes get told that there's a conflict with my passion for science. But what this book shows is that the two don't have to be enemies. There are things in … Continue reading This Book is Blowing my Mind
Christian Headcovering
For several years I wore an infinity veil or a mantilla daily as a symbol of submission, because of the angels, and because 1 Corinthians 11 teaches women should not pray with their heads uncovered (and we are to pray without ceasing). In the Christian faith, beautiful, Holy, life giving things are veiled. That includes … Continue reading Christian Headcovering
