Why is that such a rarity? Beautiful reflection on family size....not sure if she did. Her will was completely in union with God's, but my guess is that she was judged for having a small family in a culture that saw fecundity as God's blessing for a family, and barrenness as a curse.

VERY good reminder for me. especially as I thought about the very real feelings that Mary must have felt. did she long for a bigger family too? looking forward to the link. i heard a rockin’ homily here, reminding us that the holy family had their fair share of issues and it was how they responded to things that made them holy.

Don't you miss Denver? I have to say I'm not the biggest fan of the East Coast, but you've got a decent pick of apostolic opportunities there. Happy feast day!

And that every Sunday, we trecked 30 minutes to Denver to listen to our beloved Arch Bishop Chaput. He is so amazing and we miss him and his homilies. Thanks for this website and for the information you left on my blog. Your ministry is so important! God Bless You!
