Pregnancy: How Does it Feel?

Pro-Life

Cynthia went to D.C. today to walk in the Right to Life march. Our little activist! She made the sign herself of course, and I think it turned out quite nicely. She went with some people from her youth group. I love the youth group. It gives her something fun to do and keeps her connected a little closer to her faith than she was before. I must admit, I don't do NEARLY enough of the family praying thing. We go to church on Sundays and I do my private stuff, but it's nice to know that she has religion in her school and now in her free time through the youth group. Maybe for lent this year I will ADD something rather than take something away. I'll add more prayer time. Really, I am a horrible Catholic as they go! No, that's not just the guilt talking. It's so easy to get sucked into the drama of the world and to forget to really spend time praying and meditating on all the beautiful things in Christianity. But, I am trying to get better. Am I preaching? I don't mean to. I just feel that as I get older and the world just keeps getting shittier and I remember how good it feels to be in church and to listen to the sermans and to pray.....I mean, I can't recall prayer ever feeling BAD. So why don't I remember to do it more often? Because lately, when I do pray, it turns out to be a rather miraculous experience. Nothing earth shattering, but very peaceful and helpful to my mind and my survival.

So, I will try to be a better Catholic....for my sake. And for my peace of mind.

Hmm. I thought this was supposed to be about Cynthia's march! Well, perhaps when she gets home and tells me all about it I will post more.
