Small Success: Pray through the rough spots

Hello everyone! Welcome back for another week.

Sometimes, it’s really hard to come up with a new way to count and recognize all the ways in which each week, we are fully blessed. Some weeks, it’s easy.

This week, all ten of my children are home. When older children return, there’s always an adjustment period. There’s always some pecking order squabbles which must settle before true peace can settle in the home. Yeah, I prayed the Rosary about it. However, once those fights end, they sit and watch a movie about Dr. Strange, we play cards, make soup, and plan out the week. Small Success is about recognizing when the blessing itself is sufficient. It’s easy. It’s easy, easy, easy, easy. It’s saying the Rosary easy. So this week, what have I learned? I’ve learned to be patient with myself and others, and to pray through the rough spots because they are only that: spots. Have a great week, filled of Small Successes.
