Growing with my Girls

My life with a wonderful husband, living my vocation of raising three girls Catholic in a secular world, finding myself more counter-cultural and farther from the mainstream every day, and trying to grow in patience, knowing that they will not be little for long.

About Me

My photo
Erin
I spend my days as a 35 year old Catholic wife and mother changing diapers, nursing babies, teaching my children at home, making yogurt, picking figs, and fighting city hall for the rights of families to care for themselves in healthy and self-sufficient ways. I love my husband, chocolate, the Pope(s), Earl Greyer and Irish Breakfast teas, cooking, and the beauty and truth of my faith's teachings on family, sexuality, and love. My mottos are "Education is an atmosphere, a discipline, a life," "Ora et Labora," and "Offer it up." If you dropped by, you'd likely find me in my kitchen barefoot with a baby on my hip making dinner while rocking out to some Tonic or Emerson Hart.
