Therese

Today was the feast day of St. Therese the Little Flower. It's the middle name we chose to give Monica because we love this saint. One major thing that got me through the pregnancy with Monica was reading books on St. Therese at night. Her life was so little and humble yet so extraordinary in her capacity for confidence and hope.
Monica doesn't quite understand all of this yet. Today she toddled around with a runny nose in a cute dress. She's breaking in some molars so her sleeping patterns are horrendous. BUT she's still huggable, kissable and downright giggly most of the day. She's a little person with lots of joy- just like her patroness.
St. Therese- pray for us!
