Mary Moments Needs You

From the blogging superstar Sarah:

“My gift to Mary is this month’s Mary Moments, which will be hosted right here on Monday, May 25 (Memorial Day).

We’ll be doing this Mary Moments a little differently, with a Mr. Linky so you can share your blog posts. You’ll also be welcome to share in the comments too if you don’t have a blog.

I’m hoping this will be an easier way for more people to be a part of Mary Moments, where we share our Mary-inspired thoughts, reflections, tips, and everything else. We’ll focus on parenthood this time around, which doesn’t mean you have to be a parent to participate. :) We all have an experience with parenthood, with someone who inspired us and helped us forward.

Spread the word and dig through your archives, if you don’t have time to write something new (or if you haven’t already written something in May).”

Be sure to visit Just Another Day of Catholic Pondering on Memorial Day to share your post.

Hi, I’m Kate

I’m a wife, mom of five kids, writer, speaker, storyteller, bibliophile, runner, eating disorder survivor, and perfectionist in recovery. I'm the author of Getting Past Perfect: Finding Joy & Grace in the Messiness of Motherhood  and Weightless: Making Peace With Your Body.

I’ve tried a lot of things in my life – anorexia, bulimia, law school, teaching aerobics, extended breastfeeding, vegetarianism, trying to be perfect and failing miserably at it – and through it all I’ve been writing. And learning to embrace the messiness of life instead of covering it up, making excuses for it, or being ashamed of my brokenness or my home’s sticky counters.

Nowadays I’m striving every single, imperfect day to strike a balance between keeping it real and keeping it joyful.

 

“She could never be a saint, but she thought she could be a martyr if they killed her quick.”

―Flannery O'Connor
