You are the light of the world. A city built on a hill cannot be hid. No one after lighting a lamp puts it under the bushel basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven.
Matthew 5:14-16
On Friday, surrounded by our closest friends and family, we finally got to baptize my sweet baby Maeve.
It’s no secret that I cry at church, and Baptisms are no exception. I’m reminded of God’s immeasurable love for us, and I stand in awe of this most precious gift he has entrusted me with, time and time again.
I’m a bit frightened of the task laid out before me — as a Catholic mother, I promise to train my children in my Faith and to serve as an example.
I’m far from perfect, but being a wife and a mother soothes my soul. My husband and my children gently pull me away from being selfish toward the selfless path that Christ has intended for me to follow.

What a sweet photo of Maeve’s baptism!
That photo is perfect – it captures the spirit of the moment perfectly. What a beautiful day and what a blessed child!
Congratulations, Dianna!! Beautiful picture!
What a sweet picture of both of you. I am so envious because I couldn’t be there. Hope to see you all on Thursday. Love you all so very much. Just got my computer up and running after 2 weeks having everything piled up everywhere.
Congratulations! God grant her many years!
