Happy Valentine’s Day!

May today fill you with feelings of love and appreciation.

As we read various stories to the kiddos of love and kindness,

may we too remember that:

we are loved!!!

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only son, so that whomever believes in Him may not die…but have eternal life”- John 3:16

God Bless,

Tammi

💪🏼Fatherhood is more than just creating a child. It is the way that you live your life. It is supporting, mentoring, loving, and protecting those around you through the masculine gifts you offer. My husband’s fatherhood extends beyond his own children to his godchildren, younger siblings, young nephews, other fathers, and work colleagues. He is called to be Christ to all whom he meets. 💪🏼Although I love my children fiercely, I will never be able to give my children what their father can. He is their everything. ❤️ He represents strength, protection, safety, and support. They rely on him. He reassures them with his strong arms and his gentle affirmations. He reenforces their belief in a God who loves them by his very presence in their lives. 💪🏼When you lose your dad as a teen, like my husband did, you quickly realize the value of having a father throughout all the tough stages of life. My husband never wants his children to feel unloved. He wants his children to know their worth. He needs them to feel strengthened by his love for them. He lays his head down at night confident that he has loved well and prays that the Lord will help him to grow in wisdom. #fatherhood #dadlife

🏀God places people in our lives for us to love and be loved by. That alter server is one of my best guy friends. When I got engaged, I knew I wanted him there on the altar. 🏀Since that day, he has supported my marriage and I have supported his priesthood. What started out as two scrappy freshman on a basketball court at FUS, moved to a powerful friendship of mutual respect and support. He has come and blessed my new home by offering a Mass in my house, and offered countless masses for my family’s intentions. We have called each other at some of our toughest times because the Holy Spirit prompted us. Our friendship has been a great gift. 🏀Join me in praying for priests this weekend, like Father Joe, who spiritually father so many. The Holy priests who truly live their lives in service to others and embrace their vocations. Let us especially pray for our brother priests who work amongst those who chose to defile the priesthood and the work of God.

#marriagemondaychallenge Celebrating marriage today with @surprisedbymarriage. ❤️ This picture captures so much of that day: • Standing in the church that my husband helped physically build with his brother’s construction company. • Seeing Fr. Dave always teaching, always inviting us into deeper worship. • Standing with my fiancé, always equals, ready to embark on this life together. Seeing my hands raised in worship here was just a reminder of how full my heart was of gratitude for my partner next to me and a God who continues to know and love me. @wildgooseministry

Happy Pentecost! 🔥🔥🕊🕊 🔥The Holy Spirit entered into my life as a little white bird on the top of my stretcher. I was about 10/11 years old when I had a tremendous head injury. I had been hit with a metal baseball bat in the temple. I would later require several internal stitches and several outer stitches to close the massive hole created. Having lost two pints of blood, I was scared. I remember closing my little eyes and praying for God to be with me. When I opened my eyes, I watched a little white bird fly toward me and rest on the head of the stretcher. He flew off right before the doors closed on the ambulance. I remember the peace that came over me. I just knew that I would be ok. 🔥Throughout my life, the Holy Spirit continues to guide and instruct me. I hear His whispers in my heart and His desires to teach me how to love greater, minister through His Power, and speak/write Truth of the Catholic faith. It is through a life guided by the Holy Spirit, that I have been able to spiritually “see” people hurting and help them. He continues to bring people into my life who need God’s message of love. He only asks that we allow Him permission. 🔥 The Holy Spirit continues to bring healing and light into my life. Through my darkest times, that peace has always entered my heart. If you need inner peace, cultivate a friendship with this amazing advocate that we have been given. He longs to help us. 🔥Start today. “Come Holy Spirit. Come now. Come as you wish.” (This beautiful prayer was taught to me by a faithful friend. )❤️ 🔥Pray for the desire to give Him permission to oversee your life and your heart. He is gentle and loving. He awaits you. #mymasstakeaway

🧳Tomorrow we celebrate 18 years of marriage. My heart could not love this man more. The Lord often reminds me that he need not be my “everything” because only God will never disappoint or fail me. The Lord has blessed me with a mighty worker, a gentle-hearted man, an amazing dad, but tough as nails on himself. He gives, and gives all he has...even to the exhaustion of his body. 😢 He wants his every moment to be spent surrounded by those whom he loves. ❤️ 🧳For the past 7 years, I have blogged about our marriage and how it was about compromise, sacrifice, respect and honor. Putting each other’s needs before our own. Learning to build a foundation of trust and support. And....my friends it truly is...but lately the Lord has also shown me another beautiful facet of marriage..... It’s healing power and the grace of the Sacrament. 🧳We each come into a marriage with luggage. We stand taking our vows with our luggage awaiting us. This luggage represents our belief systems, values we have learned, experiences that have played out, and our emotional development into adulthood. Some times we fill our luggage with all our own “stuff” but often our families can also shape us. We may be carrying around luggage of our parents. Ideals/beliefs that they have passed down to us. 🧳Marriage is about honoring that luggage. It’s unpacking your luggage of beautiful memories and timeless conversations. Sharing stories of the younger version of ourselves. Rehashing big life events, and crying through loss. It’s also unpacking luggage that contains vices or shortcomings along the way. Luggage that might take years for you to have the strength or vulnerability to even peek inside. It’s about someone pointing out that dusty suitcase full of “lies” that you have hidden within yourself. It’s finding someone who you can vulnerability ask “ will you help me unpack this”?! It’s the beauty of being held while you sort through what to keep and what to discard. It’s the promise of forever and that no piece of luggage is too much for your marriage, rooted in Christ, to handle. 🧳We all have a choice in what we carry into our marriage and what we chose to shed along the way.

So....”maybe try and attempt a DIY” I said. “It should be fun.” I am crying laughing at my son’s first attempt to DIY. Introducing “avocado man”.....I literally just can’t. 😂😂 #kidsrule #nocraftinggenehere #diy
