'Frog said, "Would you like me to tell you a story, Toad?"
"Yes," said Toad, "if you know one."'
Mary, Virgin and Mother,
shows us what love is and whence it draws its origin
and its constantly renewed power.
To her we entrust the Church and her mission in the service of love:
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
you have given the world its true light,
Jesus, your Son - the Son of God.
You abandoned yourself completely
to God's call and this became a wellspring
of the goodness which flows forth from him.
Show us Jesus. Lead us to him.
Teach us to know and love him,
so that we too can become capable of true love
and be fountains of living water
in the midst of a thirsting world.
(By Pope Benedict XVI: Deus Caritas Est [42])

Awesome blogging skills C-----. I stand in awe, as Moses did before the burning bush.
Im throughly enjoying my new clarinet, by the way, although the register key likes to play me false, like David did Bathsheeba's husband.
It is time for me to go away, now, just like the Philistines were driven away by the Israelites...and I'll take my biblical metaphors with me.
Good.
I love it, Claire! Did you know that yesterday my oldest, Anne Philippa, was two and a third? I'm so happy for her! I hope she's enjoying life immensely. And Stephen'll be two in a little over a month... It's all so magical!
Congrats on Frankie, by the way. Wow. Four... I'm so proud of him!
Uh, are you taking a Bible course for school by any chance, Hill? Play me false... hahaha! 10 cheers for new clarinets! Did you know that I also got a new clarinet? It's sweet.
Speaking of Oct 22, Zenka, that's the next St. Hermes feast day! You should have named little Stevie *Stephen Hermes* Maybe next time... :)
By the way, we got the DVD's of Mr. Fisher's recitals in June. It was very entertaining to watch. It's esp. fun to watch it in fast motion because 1.it goes by faster, and 2. a lot of the pieces sound better faster. Haha!
That's pretty tight. I prostrate myself before your HTML knowledge.
that's pretty awesome claire. I'm utterly amazed. Ahh, it's friday again. One more class, than a whole weekend of fun. I'm going home tonight for a dance thing, which I will get to really late because we have a lecture, then tomorrow we're supposed to go to the beach with the seniors (whether we will or not is another question...) and then a bunch of us are going over to Sarah Susanka's house (Stephen's older sister) to make dinner, since she's about to pop with number four. It will be great! Everybody feel free to call/ write/ email me, although email is a little bit hit and miss. I don't get to check it too much,so it might be a better bet to call. Anyway, I lvoe you all...
We lvoe you too, Bing.
Awesome Claire! My 7th baby, Lydia Marie, was born yesterday. Hooray!
Pretty awesome!
Patty, you will have to give me a biblical course. Agree? That would be fun...;)
Mmm...On November 9, Martin Anthony will be born. Such a cutie-pumpkin! I love him to pieces.
God bless you all!
Short and sweet. Very delicate and light: the words seem to be carried softly, as on clouds. On the negative side, the exclamation point ruins the effect and brings the overall quality down, as does the question mark; however, the generaly brilliance of the word choice and sentence construction gives it a definitively high rating.
I'll give it an 8.8
Short... uuuuuhhhhhh.
ya mean.... auhhhh
Rose, I would be happy to do you a bible study course anytime. The best part would be it would take about ten minutes or so and then we good go straight on to swing dancing!
That sounds like a terrific idea Patrick! When do we start?
...heh, heh, that would be fun, but unfortunately wouldn't work because you live quite a long ways away. But whenever I DO see you, we should...I love reading the Bible!
(By the way, when you bring the Bible, don't forget to pack in the swing music! ;)
Patz, instead of a picture of your girlfriend in your Bible, you can put a swing CD. Heh! That'd be funny. Or you could glue the picture of your gf onto the CD. Anyway.
Rose, just do Fr. Laux. It's all good.
Fr. Laux, eh? Good deal. I will look into it. But I will be doing it for school next year anyways.
God bless!
