You are a woman after my own heart! My husband and I just converted from Reformed Presbyterian (PCA) this past Easter. Best decision we have ever made. We too tend towards traditional and are blessed to attend the Latin Mass. We have a son that’s three and a daughter who is 7 months. How much richer is the Catholic faith and liturgical year for us our little ones! What a beautiful journey we are on as we build a domestic church in our homes!
I love your blog, it has stolen my morning

From one Catholic mama to another…
Yours in Christ through Mary,
Melissa
Welcome to the Church, Melissa! I’m so excited for you and your husband. We’re only a couple years ahead of you
And I’m super jealous you get to attend Latin Mass. There isn’t one in town. But, they just started having one about 30 minutes away being said monthly so we try to attend that one whenever we can!
I love that our kids are almost exactly the same age. And yes, there is so much richness and beauty. I feel like I have so much to learn about exploring the liturgical year with my kids and building the domestic church in our home. So glad there’s other Catholic mamas to learn from:)
Subscribed to your blog and I’m excited to learn from your family’s liturgical traditions!
