What a blessed time of the year!!! I am so grateful for so many things in my life I can't even begin to list all of them but one important one is the birth of our Savior. I am thankful for my church and the faith I can carry with me on a daily basis. I really think about this during this time "after" Christmas which is really the time that we Catholics begin to celebrate Christmas. I love how I am able to continue to celebrate Christmas after the 25th. It is only the beginning!!! Every day I take time to pray and think about the birth of Christ and think about Mary and try to imagine what she went through. I am a mom and I gave birth in a nice and clean hospital. What a strong, faithful, and wise woman!! I am happy to bring in a new year with a celebration of the Holy Mother and the Feast of the Ephiphany which is when the wisemen came to pay homage to Jesus.
Today in church we always celebrate the Holy Family after the 25th and I pray to be more like Mary every day. I pray for all mothers around the world and I cannot forget Joseph either. He was a faithful servent to God. I pray for all families around the world to be more like the Holy Family.
