Today was Sunday. We always go to mass as a family and I love that we do. I think it's really true that the 'family that prays together, stays together.' It's not always the 'spiritual mountaintop' that I have the unrealistic expectation that it should be. Taking kids to mass can be a challenge, but I know that the graces we receive as a family helps us get through the tough times.
When we got home, I had a real surprise. Ray turned on the tv and "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" was on. He encouraged me to just stop what I was going to do (prepare lunch, get kids changed, skype with Bec) and just curl up on the couch and snuggle with him and watch the movie. So I did...and it was GREAT. And then, to top it off, he got up,served me French Vanilla, and a before lunch appetizer, and then served us all lunch, hamburgers and baked beans. It was such a blessing! Today was a real treasure!!
