A small miracle

I think I was given a small miracle on Monday! We had gone to mass together as a family, which took a lot of sacrifice to get out of our warm beds. As a result, I believe, I was given a small amount of peace and the ability to get quite a few things done!

Alex and Kateri had gone out to play and walk Shadow, Luke said he was taking a nap and went upstairs to put himself to bed, and Will was sleeping in the car seat in the sun. I just sat down for a minute and listened to the clock tick before I went about my business. For the people with children: you know what a nice gift it is to listen to the clock! :o)
