So, who’s the new kid on the block at CatholicMom.com? …ME! And I’m delighted to be part of the stable of columnists for this wonderful resource for Catholic mothers. Kudos to Lisa Hendey for her magnificent work. Thanks, Lisa!

The American Flag is a symbol of our heritage. Not a perfect heritage, and not a simple one, but a real one.
Mary reminds us that holiness is possible in ordinary life. Her humility counters our culture's obsession with self-promotion, her trust challenges our need for control, and her tenderness softens the edges of our hurried hearts.
This devotion matters because it speaks directly to real life. Many people feel tired, distracted, and weighed down by quiet anxieties. Some struggle to pray. Others long for peace in their homes or healing in their relationships. The Sacred Heart meets us in those ordinary needs.
