Have you heard of the popular "morning basket?" After 9 years of homeschooling, I finally found a relaxed and simple method that our family loves! Take a peek at how we do it in this post.

FREE Ember Days Printable from Jen at Eva to Ave!

The Catholic Ember Days occur 4 times per year in each of the seasons (winter, spring, summer, and fall). You don't hear about Ember Days much in the Catholic church anymore, but they are great to observe. The purpose of Ember Days is to offer prayers and sacrifices in thanksgiving to God for His blessings each season.

My friend, Jen, explains this tradition in her recent post and has a beautiful FREE printable to help you remember when the Ember Days occur!

I hope you all are enjoying the beautiful Easter season! I am always sad to see it come to an end, but I look forward to all of the fun and meaningful liturgical living that the summer brings!

May God bless you and your family!

In Christ,

Alex
