All This And Heaven: Pickle is 11

What will I see here?

Take a peek into our life as a big family in Houston, TX. Welcome to the electronic journal for the Texas T family. This blog was created to share some moments of our life with you. Often having 11 children, homeschooling, and being incredibly active in our Catholic faith we are asked “How do you do it?” We invite you to look around, sign up as a follower, and peek into the answer to that question. Remember we are not a perfect family; but I won't post the bad stuff.

Thanks for visiting, Neen

Pickle is 11

My precious Pickle had a birthday on Saturday. He had a countdown going for weeks and couldn't wait. His dad had the flu on his big day so he felt let down. Dad was going to take him to Bass Pro and it just didn't happen, dad was too sick. Maybe next weekend.

The hardest part was that we waited until Sunday to eat his Cheesecake. He had picked that and we all were longing for a piece. It was worth the wait, YUMMY!

Pickle is a kind soul that is usually very happy. I can count on him for a hug when I most need one. He is a sensitive heart and his mind is always thinking. Just yesterday he expressed how disappointed he was in himself for only being able to recall 3 Christmas songs. He thinks that at 11 you should have a larger collection to pull from. He thinks about things differently that most people. The world is a much better place with this precious young man in it. Dad and I are so proud of him and we thank God for sending him to us. God Bless Pickle and Happy Birthday!

I love hearing your thoughts. Thank you for stopping by.

Year of Faith

The Nicene Creed I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible. I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven, and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets. I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.

Our Lady of Perpetual Help

Immaculate Virgin Mary, Mother of God and Mother of the Church you are also our Mother of Perpetual Help. With hearts full of love for you we consecrate ourselves to your Immaculate Heart so that we may be your devoted children. Obtain for us true sorrow for our sins and fidelity to the promises of our Baptism. We consecrate our minds and hearts to you that we always do the Will of our heavenly Father. We consecrate our lives to you that we may love God better and live not for ourselves but for Christ, your Son and that we may see Him and serve Him in others. By this humble act of consecration dear Mother of Perpetual Help we pledge to model our lives on you, the perfect Christian. So that, consecrated to you in life and in death we may belong to your Divine Son for all eternity. Amen

What will I see here?
