This is a great, down-to-earth article from Jennifer Hartline, a contributing writer for Catholic Online: "It is Time for a Real Sexual 'Counter-Revolution.' This real-life Catholic mom and Army wife writes with her head on straight. If I may critique a little, however, I think that Hartline may be ...

“Franco’s Song”
Just wanted to upload this beautiful song to my blog. Our dear friend Adam wrote Michael and I this song for our wedding, although we only first heard the song this August. It's called (appropriately) "Franco's Song," and it's actually on the first album by Brother Brother, ... Read More about “Franco’s Song”

Women’s ACTS this weekend
I'm headed out in about an hour or so for my first retreat in a very long time. My last retreat was--I think--my sophomore year of college. "Bless me Father, for I have sinned. It has been a very, very long time since my last retreat..." Yes, I know that's a bit melodramatic, but if you think ... Read More about Women’s ACTS this weekend
