A Sainthood From Trifles


'The holiness of saints does not
depend on anything sensational, 
but on little things
which seem but trifles 
in the eyes of the world.'

Pope St. John XXIII

  2. How lovely!

    I know very little about John XXIII......I'm appreciating all I learn/hear about him!

    1. I haven't read much by or about John XXIII, Chris, and am always struck enough by what I run across that I really should treat myself to more of his writings :)!

      The newest addition is now opening his eyes a bit (he was almost 4 weeks early, so has spent his time sleeping and growing), and of COURSE he's super-duper- cuddly :). Thanks so much for visiting today!
