Mother’s Day photos went about as well as could be expected considering the circumstances #pandemic #5kidsisalotofkids 😂 Actually, in all honesty, if your plans were seriously derailed this year, can I suggest starting a small tradition of getting IN the photo with your kid(s) just one day a year- just Mother’s Day. We spend all day every day documenting these little stinkers (ahem, angels) from every angle possible, but we also need to be documented WITH them. No matter the wide range of emoji faces we got, I believe the kids and I will want to look back at these pictures some day ❤️ #getinthephoto #dontevendressup #Andytook7000photos #theremayhavebeensomethreats #andTeofellintheriver #coolcool❤️Easter 2020 good things: Easter baskets, Easter egg hunts, chocolate, good food, grandparent goodie drop offs and zoom family dinner. 💔Easter 2020 not great things: not physically being with extended family, family photos taken under threat and a personal lack of “Alleluia”. 🌷I know we are an Easter people. I know Alleluia is our song. But right now, my spiritual and emotional edges are so frayed, that trying to dive into that truth seems impossible and even a little painful. 🐣So, praise God for Easter traditions that bring happiness to children and still taste good for us adults. And if your Easter wasn’t full of profound theological Joy (or even plain ol’ happiness), if trying to declare “He is Risen!” made you cry instead of smile- you’re not alone. ❤️ ✝️And maybe this season- Easter (not Lent)-is the time for growth for some of us. It is a season that begs us to hold the grief/anger/sadness/fear of our lives and the joy of a risen Lord in the same cupped hands. I’m glad this season is 50 days; I’ve got a lot of work to do. 🌅I’m just going to take a second to appreciate this man right here. He is a full time engineer, full time dad, full time spouse and, somehow, is still making the time to produce these face shields for local healthcare workers. ❤️ He’s 3D printing ‘round the clock, staying up late to tweak the design, and coordinating safe delivery to those on the front lines who need them.👏🏻 You know how we’re supposed to “find the helpers” in times of crisis? Well, I found one. For sure. #weareallthehelpers #diyPPE #stayhomestaysafe Thank you @josefprusa for the original design and for all our customers @catholiccurio who are funding this effort ❤️. We have seen an outpouring of generosity that, I think, attests to the deep desire in every human to be a helper. It is an amazing truth to witness.Archives

This daughter of mine… Seriously, she slays me with those big blue eyes. And these pictures? They just slay me too. Pretty sure it’s because I’m experiencing time travel again. First Communion? Wedding? Final Vows? Any and all of those … Continue reading
