Feeding Time!

He’s really liking bale grazing. Feeding the bovine without using a drop of diesel! That rubber mallet he’s using shattered in on one of those really cold days.
We feel blessed that once in a blue moon Grandpa is able to babysit so that we can go on our favorite chore dates.🌹

75

It was fun listening to these 2!
The musicians helped bring in $17,000 for St. Joe’s, they’ll need $136,000 for their restoration project. August 10th is another Parish fundraiser with musicians.
We got to celebrate Grandpa’s birthday with a special drop in guest.💙
Flowers in memory of Mother. Thank you Renae!

Uncle Minh

My mother’s little brother passed away this past week. If you have room in your prayers, please pray for the repose of his soul and for his family.

This is a picture I have of my uncle when Mom and I were in Vietnam in 2000.

Brotherly Love 💙

I looked out the window to see big brother tying on little brother’s scarf better. Pretty sure these are the sweetest moments of motherhood, seeing my children help each other is a taste of heaven. Praying that they continue to do so and pray for each other and help each other on their Journey to Heaven.

Daddy and Grandpa fed the yearlings today.

Quote of the Day”And above all, be on your guard not to want to get anything done by force, because God has given free will to everyone and wants to force no one, but only proposes, invites and counsels.”–St. Angela Merici

Today’s Meditation
“Among the various indications that make the holiness of God known to men, the most convincing sign is the holiness of men, who are sanctified by the divine indwelling . . . In teaching us the words, ‘hallowed be Thy name,’ our Lord also bids us, when we pray, to ask that God may be glorified by our lives. The sense of the prayer is this: ‘Grant us so to live, that all men may glorify Thee through us.’ God is sanctified or hallowed in the minds of other men through us, to the extent that we are sanctified by Him. Hence when we say: ‘hallowed be Thy name,’ we pray, as Cyprian remarks, that God’s name may be hallowed in us.  Following the lead of Christ, who says: ‘Be holy, because I am holy,’ we beg that we, who have been sanctified in Baptism, may persevere in the state in which we began. Furthermore we pray daily to be sanctified in order that we, who daily fall, may wash away our sins by a constant process of purification.”
—St. Thomas Aquinas, p. 350-351, Aquinas Short Summa
