Help For Haiti via Carried On The Wind
Rebecca is supporting the work of her friends Shelley and Corrigan Clay
and their non-profit organization, The Apparent Project.They are working to provide employment for Haitians, as well as providing education, food, and housing as they’re able. Many of Haiti’s orphans still have parents, but their parents are unable to provide for them; they are poverty orphans. Shelley and Corrigan’s heart is to provide families with the tools they need to stay together. At last count they were employing around 70 people making jewelry and other products which are sold here in the United States
Please consider visiting Rebecca’s blog and making a donation.

Three Babies in One Weekend!
Two wonderful ladies whom I’ve met through blogging and one friend (in-real-life) all had their babies this weekend.
- Mat.Emma’s baby boy was born at just under 32 weeks after several weeks of bedrest and medications to keep him gestating as long as possible. Please keep him in your prayers as he will be sure to spend some time in the NICU, and pray for Mat. Emma, Fr John and their two other kiddos.
- Patty also had a baby boy this weekend. She was just past her due date, and the baby was 9 pounds 13 ounces! Way to go, Mama!
- Carie had her baby girl this weekend at 35 weeks along. Baby Elise is in the NICU, but shouldn’t be there for too long (hopefully). Please pray for this family as well.

Visiting a Friend
the boy played with guns
while the girls talked
they rode tricycles and bicycles
pulled a wagon and walked
they posed on a swing
for a picture or two
good times were had by all
especially me and you!
Mel, it was so nice to see you again.
We are incredibly saddened by your loss and pray for you daily.
I hope our next visits won’t be so far apart. -

Are you able to set up pages
that show results of a specific category?I’ve tried adding multiple plug-ins, but none of them work for me. Please help if you can!
So…what do you think?

I Am Just Bummed…
In the past several of months, there has been so much sadness in my life and the lives of those around me. I am having a very hard time this evening with it all.
In a short period of time, our family has been constantly sick, my mom is dealing with her cancer and constant testing, my friend, who had been trying to conceive for nearly two years, miscarried her baby, my Nonna struggles in a nursing home, my other friends found out that their future plans are being delayed indefinitely, another friend delivered a stillborn full-term baby girl, my husband’s Aunt Joy passed away after a short battle with brain cancer, several people that we love have been trying for years and cannot conceive, my in-laws are going through a hard time at their church, a friend’s step-mother was diagnosed with cancer, and the wedding of our friends that was supposed to be this weekend had to be cancelled due to immigration issues and the groom is now detained, separated from his fiance AND his young daughter, on the weekend that was to be his wedding.
On top of this, now that our family has been exposed to a “highly contagious” virus, we have to cancel our trip back home. My mom’s side of the family, all four of her brothers and their families, were getting together. One of my aunts has brain cancer and I have an uncle who is very ill. I so wanted to be there because this may be the last time that everyone is together as a family, and now we can’t go. We can’t expose these two family members, who are in compromised physical states, to this stupid virus.
I am angry. I am sad. I am disappointed. I am confused. I am frustrated.
I just wish things weren’t like this.

Prayer for Children
O God, our heavenly Father, who loves mankind and are a most merciful and compassionate God, have mercy upon Your servants for whom I humbly pray to You to care for and protect. O God, be their guide and guardian in all their endeavors, lead them in the path of Your truth, and draw them nearer to You, so that they may lead a godly and righteous life in Your love as they do Your will in all things. Give them Your grace, and mercy so that they may be patient, hard working, tireless, devout and charitable. Defend them against the assaults of the enemy, and grant them wisdom and strength to resist all temptation and corruption, and direct them in the way of Salvation, through the goodness of Your Son, our Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.
