Hi! I am a cradle Catholic, proud Army wife, mother, & social worker. I blog about my faith, Army life from a wife's perspective, and parenthood!

As parents, we have the opportunity to rest in the arms of Jesus any time we have intentional interaction with Him. #catholicmom by @beautifulcamome https://t.co/Zl78GcJIFo via @catholicmomcom

I had a different topic planned, but my latest came out as soon as my alarm went off!

[BeautifulCamo @BeautifulCamoMe]

@mpalmquist509 RSV went through the 6 people in our home (3 neg. Covid tests) over the course of the last three weeks. As one would turn the corner, someone else would come down. We know the official diagnosis because of the youngest's hospital trip. Praying that all of you rebound quickly!

Anyone in a sacramental union isn’t called just to get themselves to heaven; they are also challenged to encourage their spouse to sainthood. #catholicmom by @beautifulcamome https://t.co/7vzaim6h7h via @catholicmomcom My latest... Enjoy!

Every “weight of the world” needs its saints to emerge. #catholicmom by @beautifulcamome https://t.co/BKz4L1xhSY via @catholicmomcom - my latest for CatholicMom might explain where I have disappeared to for the past month, and some of the musings that have come about!

@frankenstein007 Looks quiet and peaceful. For now. Turn to page 3.

@frankenstein007 I’m saying I would like to see the next two options… both choices… And, yes, that is how I read those books - don’t tell my oldest, though. 🤫

[BeautifulCamo @BeautifulCamoMe]

@frankenstein007 I hate these books. I’d like to read the ending first, please. 😈

My latest for @CatholicMomCom touches on the “secret” to true happiness. Spoiler, “Living faithfully to doing God’s will, instead of our own will, is what will satisfy our hearts.” #catholicmom by @beautifulcamome https://t.co/tGaYjxyquk via @catholicmomcom

Supporting self published authors doesn't actually require you buying their books. Sure, that is a very nice thing to do, but sharing their links, commenting something encouraging, or even just asking your library to carry their book is enough to support them. Small things matter

A doggie-ER (at around 10 PM), and a bathroom (granted, chapel bathroom after a Catholic women’s meeting) - that’s where I found my closest friends in the past decade. Ask God for holy friends to uplift you in your vocation, and I promise He’ll provide!

@Halo0898 So, so precious!! 💕💕

@KatiePMcGrady Depends on where I’m going. Long car ride? Peanut M&M’s and gummy bears and a fountain drink. Around-town driving? Maybe just a Coke.

[Father Josh Johnson @frjoshjohnson]

The ministries, missions & works we do for God’s Kingdom MUST NOT be our 1st priority. Communion w/ the Trinity in prayer MUST BE our 1st priority. The fruits of our relationship w/ Jesus will be manifested in our ministries, missions & works that we do for the Kingdom of God.

[Fr. Goyo @FrGoyo]

Much of our stress and anxiety happen because we don’t take a quiet moment alone with God to take care of our spiritual life.

Even if it is just a few minutes, sit quietly with God each day.

“Holiness inspires holiness.” So much truth in that one brief sentence! Will you inspire others? And, who inspires you?

[Fr John S. Hogan, ocds @jshocds]

Holiness inspires holiness. Today’s Saint, St Camillus (1550-1614), the epitome of charity & servant of the sick, following his conversion was guided by St Philip Neri, who himself was inspired by St Ignatius. Virtue flourishes in wholesome friendships with godly people.

@mpalmquist509 Dispensation hasn’t been lifted. I don’t expect it to until the fall at the earliest.

[BeautifulCamo @BeautifulCamoMe]

@rockinrobyn94 My jaw just dropped. I will be praying for comfort & peace for you. Also, praying for that priest. I would also speak to a priest (maybe at another parish) to see if you could receive outside of Mass. We have parishioners still coming in to receive in private during the week.
