"Truly, it is the indescribable sweetness of contemplation which you give to those who love you. In this you have shown the tenderness of your charity, that when I had no being you made me; and when I strayed away from you, you brought me back again to serve you and commanded me to love you." The Imitation of Christ

Nephew Update
The latest photo of my nephew... I have to say that I'm a little concerned by the "rabbit-in-headlights" expression he keeps adopting whenever there's a camera in the vicinity! Maybe he'll grow out of it!
Btw! I've been reading your blog for a while and greatly enjoy it! and thanks for mentioning me! :D
and... wow! you took private vows, that's pretty awesome and interesting! could you, maybe, at some point write a post about this vocation? is not very known and even though I've read some stuff I've never met someone actually living the vocation. :)
What a gorgeous little boy. He DOES have that wide-eyed look in each photo, but I think he's just very observant and interested in what's going to happen next. Orrrrrrrr... he hates cameras.

God bless!
Thanks, Ali.
ReplyDeleteThis is my first post on my vows - and why I was renewing them last year.
Next is a post I wrote on preparing to renew my vows, and what vows I had actually taken.
Finally, I wrote a post on the day of renewal itself.
There are one or two other (brief) references - type "vows" into the search blog box at the top if you're interested.
I hope this helps - another post will be put up eventually, but I'm not sure when exactly!!
Beautiful little boy!
ReplyDeleteDon't worry too much about the camera-shy thing...though I suppose he could grow up to be Amish... ;-)

He's gorgeous!
ReplyDelete...and I think he's just thinking, "er... why's she got that strange wavy, clicky, pointy thing... and why's she pointing it at ME!!!"
I've got it! I've figured out why he gets that look!
ReplyDelete...he wants a picture taken of him from behind, just like his auntie!
