"When we had our children, our ideas changed somewhat. Thenceforward we lived only for them; they made all our happiness and we would never have found it save in them. In fact, nothing any longer cost us anything; the world was no longer a burden to us. As for me, my children were my great compensation, so that I wished to have many in order to bring them up for Heaven" -- Saint Zelie Martin, mother of St. Therese of Lisieux, canonized October 18, 2015 along with her husband St. Louis Martin.

funny

My oldest was doing a religion lesson covering "...and He descended into hell and on the third day..." which went on to describe this "hell" as the Limbo of the Just, who Christ brought into heaven after His
death.

"It's called Limbo?"
Me: yes.
"Anything to do with the game?!"

I laughed imagining Noah and Abraham and the like awaiting their Savior in party mode, as it were.
But then again, I'm low on sleep.:)
