Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Drat - I haven't yet and was figuring it just was going to take a bit longer to get west. But now that I know they have been arriving in the state...it better be here tomorrow!

Woo-hoo! I got my copy of Graced and Gifted too and it looks very, very good.
Quick question about M&M--I subscribed to the previous incarnation of the magazine and got one issue. Does my subscription continue to M&M or did I just pay for 4 issues and get one? Do I need to subscribe to M&M by itself?

Mary Alice,
I just forwarded your question to Margot at Hillside.

I hope you ladies will let us know how you like "Graced and Gifted". I haven't ordered it yet but I'm so happy to see a new Kimberly Hahn book and, most of all, one on the household by a Catholic author. Whew! it's about time.

Yeaterday must have been a good mail day for lots of folks!

My mailman brought me A Picture Perfect Childhood and Haystack Full of Needles! Woo Hoo! I almost finished Haystack last night! How inspiring! I can't wait to dive into Cay's book!

Yes, please review Kimberly's book. She is one of those born-organized types, I believe. I am sure I can learn much from her.

Now, back to de-cluttering.

Mater et Magistra is wonderful! I'm really enjoying it!
Then I got Haystack Full of Needles and Picture Perfect Childhood yesterday in the mail! Now I see there's a new Kimberly Hahn book....off to Amazon. It's amazing how many book recommendations I've gotten here. And they've all been good!

I'm still waiting for my magazine, but only subscribed a week or so ago. I didn't realize the Kimberly Hahn book was out yet, and I'm waiting for "Haystack", too - so much to read, and so little time!!

My copy of M&M came today and it looks delicious. I'm trying to keep the children quiet at one end of the house while dh holds a township meeting in my dining room. Once that's over--I get to read!!!!! And it looks truly fabulous!!! Go subscribe now. You won't regret it.
