She pooped a purple bead one morning, and I caught her teething on a bright pink toddler-sized ponytail holder. Clearly she's into accessories (or they're into her). Perhaps when she's a little older, she'll start a new line of bling and things created with "bad ass beads" and "salivating hair duds." -4- Technology Throwbacks My dear husband, bless his heart, was telling me yesterday that the doctor saw him texting me and told him: "The nineties called.

Tidbits From Haiti FRANCISCAN LIFE - March 28, 2013 ... Sr. Jo's homilies are always a pleasant surprise even to her since she doesn't prepare anything written but simply prays over the scripture and trusts in the Spirit. From what I heard and saw today, the Spirit seems to really come through for her. She spoke straight from the heart to the daily life experience of these simple and beautiful people. At a certain point in her homily, she asked the people to raise their hands in blessing over me to welcome me among them and then ...http://franciscanlife.blogspot.com/2013/03/tidbits-from-haiti.html

Pope Francis to Meet Pope Benedict for Lunch in Historic Encounter CLERICAL WHISPERS - March 22, 2013 ... have resigned in the Church's 2,000 year history, many of them under duress as a result of schisms and factional feuds.

Pope Francis in No Hurry to Move Into Papal Apartment John Thavis A FRIAR'S LIFE - March 21, 2013 ... to focus on the clerical hierarchy and secular VIPs. A pope who wants to be close to the people really has to make an effort to break through the Vatican bubble. Pope John Paul II did so by inviting people – yes, even lay people – to lunch. Pope Benedict XVI, a more private person, made fewer connections. As an archbishop, Francis rode the bus and quite naturally mingled with people from all walks of life. As pope, he's going to have to create new channels of ...http://afriarslife.blogspot.com/2013/03/pope-francis-in-no-hurry-to-move-into.html
