Could you please offer up a prayer for me? Maybe say the Holy Name as you read this for me? We have been hit with a number of things lately, a very painful anniversary this month and now I'm pretty sure I'm experiencing ppd. It is really assaulting my Faith and I am very spiritually weary and all the joy is gone.

I have an appt. with a good Catholic counselor to help me through some of these issues, so that is something I am very much looking forward too. Please pray for my children and dh, I am just a horrible example of Catholic womanhood/motherhood right now. I have done zero decorating, the children have done it all. I realize I am in trouble and I am very hopeful this counselor will be able to help me.

Hope this isn't TMI, but I really, really could use your prayers! I want to be that joyful mom & wife again.

Here is the best I can do so very far away:

I am praying...and it sounds as though you're doing all the right things.

Christmas can be tough on people who are feeling down...

...and I will pray for your counselor, too!

I don't usually comment on prayer requests, but this is something I understand - praying hard.
