# Small Steps Blog Tour, Day 6: Gentleness

Oct 6, 2013 8:30:26 AM  |  by [Sarah Reinhard](https://www.catholicmom.com/articles/author/sarah-reinhard)

Welcome to Day 6 of the [Small Steps Blog Tour](http://catholicmom.com/book/small-steps-for-catholic-moms/blog-tour-and-contest-for-small-steps-for-catholic-moms/)! Our theme today is Gentleness.

[![SmallSteps(300x300)](https://www.catholicmom.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/SmallSteps300x300-12.png?width=300&height=300&name=SmallSteps300x300-12.png)](http://catholicmom.com/book/small-steps-for-catholic-moms/blog-tour-and-contest-for-small-steps-for-catholic-moms/)

You'll find today's "small steps" over at [Amongst Lovely Things](http://www.amongstlovelythings.com/2013/10/small-steps-tiptoe-toward-holiness.html). We invite you to join us throughout the day in offering a rosary reflecting on the Glorious Mysteries.

The Glorious Mysteries of the Rosary:

- The Resurrection: Jesus rises from the dead.
- The Ascension: Jesus returns to his Father in heaven.
- The Descent of the Holy Spirit: The Apostles are filled with the Holy Spirit.
- The Assumption of Mary: Mary is taken body and soul to heaven.
- The Coronation of Mary as Queen of Heaven and Earth: Mary is crowned.

Don't forget to enter the ["Five Minutes Alone" contest](http://catholicmom.com/book/small-steps-for-catholic-moms/five-minutes-alone-contest/) that's going on as part of our blog tour!
