The Rosary in a year.

I love Thanksgiving! Like many of us, it holds such wonderful memories of grateful gatherings soaked with Family and Friends.
The Catholic Edit: Ma Mère edition.
Twelve years ago today on All Hallows Eve, my Mother had her funeral Mass and burial. It just feels like yesterday or a million years ago all in one… a strange timelessness that grief often creates for us.
The Catholic Edit: Ave Maria Tee/Carmelite.
I know St. Therese of Lisieux Feast Day is October 1st and it has come and gone. But, this Saintly dear friend to so many including myself has always had a special place in my heart in all seasons.
New York City.
It’s True! It’s True! I bought my ticket to go to New York City last week! And have been quietly savoring it to myself.
Bible in a year/The Patriarchs.

I know I posted my second edit over a week ago on Instagram and not here on the little blog. I will be completely honest, I am really struggling with marketing something so dear to my heart.
Bible in a year/Early World.
It is officially now Fall on the calendar, but down here in Austin, Texas it’s still summer. hot, hot, hot. But, my Day 1 of restarting Father Mike Schmitz’s Bible in the Year Podcast on my morning commute, it was unseasonably cooler.
The Catholic Edit: Ave Maria Tee/ De Montfort Blue.
Today as I am writing this it’s Mother Mary’s birthday, Oh Happy Birthday Dear Mother Mary!!!! I thought it would be a good moment to do a edit on how to style the Ave Maria Tee and sharing some beautiful things that can help nurture your precious relationship with Our Blessed Mother.

I am no theologian, but one thing that sits in my heart right now is how the breath of the holy spirit can truly create beauty among us… and this past month and half I have been on quite a journey of saying yes to Finding Faith in design.
