Hi Moms~

Please pray for us as we move this week. The move officially happens on Saturday...and must happen on Saturday, as we have renters moving in on Sunday.

Due to our latest heartache, not a single box has been packed. Not a single one.

On top of that...the new house we are moving into is FILTHY--beyond wiping down bathrooms and countertops...

So...I will be making the 40 min. trip between here and there to clean this week...while packing...and hopefully, also burying our daughter, Margaret Mary on Friday.

Please pray that our priest and church are available for the funeral Mass (still have not heard back from him!). I really want to close this chapter of our lives (sorrow sorrow sorrow) and start a new one (hopefully, full of joy). I need the balm of a Mass to soothe my aching heart and soul.

Much ado here...

Bless you all!

Maggie

I'm praying for you, Maggie, with much empathy. May this move be only a blessing for you and your family. May Our Lady continue to comfort you in your time of need. Please know that you are not alone and perhaps you will find consolation reading at Our Mother's Garden of Sorrow.



Love,

I am praying for you...I've moved many times and it's never easy, but you have an especially difficult week ahead of you.

May Our Lady, who moved in a hurry one scary night, pray for you and beg her Son to send you peace.

Still praying here for a smooth transition for you all, Maggie. We just moved last month and it was so very stressful--without the added challenges you have had. Hope you're busy getting happily settled now!
