for your prayers in the next weeks. 
I'm almost 35 weeks pregnant and that is not helping . . .
but I am so overwhelmed right now. With everything. Every day. I have felt drained of everything now for months and I keep hoping that things will get better but they have only gotten worse.
Now, I actually dread the thought of the baby coming. I don't have anything left. I'm overwhelmed with my to-do list (I have done NOTHING to prepare for the baby, even the baby clothes are still in storage an hour away), with my children, (ages 3 and 2 who are both in really difficult stages and have been for a long time), with my husband and some tension and difficulty in our marriage and for so many other little things that are adding up daily to feel so big.
I am praying all the time, but I feel alone.
Thank you so much for any prayer you can offer for me.
 God bless you all.

I'm so sorry, Mary Theresa! Just try to remember so much of it is hormones (I'm 2 mo. postpartum  )Don't feel guilty about doing something nice for yourself, you'll come back to your family refreshed.
Much love and

Be good to yourself, Dear.....get out and go to Adoration, if only for a few minutes.....try to stay in the moment. You might be blessed with a burst in your energy in the next few weeks....keep us updated!!!!
Blessed Mother, keep a watch over Mary Theresa, and comfort her, give her strength and perserverance. Send her sweet consolations in her time of need.....

Oh Mary Theresa...I so remember feeling completely overwhelmed with one of my births in particular. I'm praying that you find support, relief, and peace during this most precious time. Jesus, I trust in You!
Love,

I will be offering my Mass tomorrow (and every Mass after) especially for you dear sweet Mary Theresa I remember something my physician said to me when I was pregnant, "Your body is working the equivalent of running a Marathon everyday!"

I'm praying for you, Mary Theresa! Do be gentle on yourself! You're in the home stretch with 2 very needy aged littles. I pray that you experience great peace as you nest in your heart as Our Lady must have during her own Advent!
