I wanted to share a Holy Spirit thought- I had great holy plans tonight- after dinner we were going to say the stations and watch some of Jesus of Nazareth. By the time dinner was over kids were mysteriously gone--- when I went to look for them...Kolbe was playing legos by himself, Ray and Brad were making a fort outside, Eric in bed reading, Mary writing letters, Cecilia drawing in her journal, and rob writing our book...I thought I would give them a couple more minutes till the fights started but for the first time in years, everyone was at peace!!! Honestly, two hours past without conflict and I finally had to bathe and put the littles to bed! I think the slow pace of this pandemic is bringing back self-awareness and creativity back to our family instead of rushing around and running to activities and doing homework.so sometimes we just need to go with the flow of the Holy Spirit and rest in His gifts! +JMJ+
