For the will and the way. Our family’s big on birthday celebrations. Coronavirus was not going to stop this one. On the contrary, it actually gave us a new way to party – – The Drive-by Caravan. The Coronavirus social distancing requisite brought about this latest way to celebrate, and yesterday we had a chance…

For what I’ll miss. Looks like I’ll be returning to my office building soon. The last two months working from home have felt…well, uniquely strange. But also surprisingly painless and quite pleasant. Although I’m looking forward to returning to the office, there are things I will miss immensely once this lockdown is over. Three in…

That He broke the mold. God created each of us unique. While we may have similarities, there are no two of us alike. And thank You Lord for that! No one wants another one of me out there. Our unique blueprint means you and I will have different likes and dislikes, opinions, and beliefs. Let…

For motherhood. As we get ready to celebrate Mother’s Day this Sunday, I think about mine. The powerhouse of a woman she was, and everything she taught me. Her example of strength and faith and unconditional love will live in me forever. I miss her dearly, and I thank God for the time I had…

For my job and extended family. I’m feeling very fortunate to be employed. Right now, millions of people are not feeling that fortunate. But I am one of the lucky ones who has a job that can be done remotely, and work for a company that not only allowed us to do that, but also…

For normal days. Let’s be real, pre-quarantine, many of us whined about our daily routines: “Ugh, I wish I could stay home today!” That was the number one response people gave when surveyed about things they think of on weekday mornings. Then one day that usual routine we complained about drastically changed when Corona came…

For emotive journeys. During our weeks of house arrest, we’ve all found ways to stay entertained. But, really, how much Netflix, board games, Animal Crossing, and walks around the neighborhood can one muster? To change it up a bit, at home we decided to inject into that mix a few short walks down memory lane….

For a season of heightened perspective. Little did I know on that Wednesday morning when I received the holy ashes, that down the road our family would not be in church for Holy Thursday Mass. For us, traditionally, one of the most meaningful observances of the Easter weekend. This has been, to say the least,…

For silver linings. Hello, friends and family. I hope you’re all hanging in there. We will get through this! Remember: Peace over panic; faith over fear. I know, I know, but even if through clenching teeth, just keep repeating it in your heads. Lots of people out there in worse situations. Let’s keep perspective on…

For our powerful intercessors. These days, we need all the extra help we can get. I want to remind those of you who believe in the intercession of saints that they, who reign together with God, offer up their own prayers for us. As most of you know, St. Jude (the patron saint of desperate…
