- I have made through a marathon of activity that included a trip to New Orleans, Sunday Mass at the Cursillo Center with all the kids, Mardi Gras parade at our house, and Ash Wednesday Mass on my own with all the kids. I have summarily cancelled all outside commitments today to grant myself a short reprieve before I send part of my family off to Houston for the weekend tomorrow.

I have made a plan for Lent that is simple enough to keep up yet rich enough to bear much fruit. I pray we are able to slow down and embrace the season.

The house has yet to recover from the flurry of coming and going, but dinner last night received rave reviews and there are clean diapers in the basket this morning. My husband did not have to wake me to dig his work clothes out of the dryer. This week, those are successes.
Now head to Faith and Family Live! to find encouragement in lots of small successes.
