"How sweet! I totally understand. We adopted after 7 1/2 years of infertility and then were blessed with two boys born to us (7 years apart). I look at the large families around us and wish I had a large brood. Then I thank God for our three and look…"

The Big Picture?

Our oldest is a freshman in high school. I worry that I am so bogged down in day to day life that I am not really preparing my kids to go out on their own. We have 3 short years left with our oldest.…Continue

Cathy Donahue replied to Cathy Donahue's discussion Declaration of Nullity"An update: the final approval came through in May, and they were married (in the Church) in July of 2010.
They're expecting!!! They both turned 40 this year and really, really wanted to start a family. Thanks be to God! And thanks…"
Cathy Donahue replied to Mary R's discussion Does anyone have a child who gets a lot of nosebleeds?"TOTALLY! Everyone in my family has frequent nosebleeds. With us it is allergy related.
Me, my brothers, my Dad, my cousins, we all get them. We combat ours with allergy medicine. Mostly it's spring pollen related, though sometimes we get them…"
Cathy Donahue posted a blog postMore Communion of Saints, please!
I recently found myself sucked into the vortex known as genealogy. It started innocently enough. My husband and I had been discussing what to do for our 25th anniversary next year. With our second child starting Catholic high school then, we’ll be lucky to afford pizza out, let alone a big trip, but I immediately thought of Cong, Ireland. My husband’s family is from there. In case you aren’t familiar with it, watch “The Quiet Man” with John Wayne and Maureen O’Hara. Who wouldn’t want to be from…See More

Angela Holmes replied to Cathy Donahue's discussion Declaration of Nullity"Definitely praying for your sister-in-law that she will have patience in dealing with the tribunal and that they might show her mercy as well!"
Lucy Sheahan replied to Cathy Donahue's discussion The Big Picture?"My oldest two are Juniors this year, so I feel the "time running out" too.
Our experience is that teens will listen during times of non-conflict. That means trying to make weekly lunch or coffee dates. For the "big talk" we have…"

Our oldest is a freshman in high school. I worry that I am so bogged down in day to day life that I am not really preparing my kids to go out on their own. We have 3 short years left with our oldest. I feel like we have so much more to teach her before she goes off to college. I'm really concerned about big picture questions like faith, work, choosing a vocation. Does anyone else feel like this? If you have older kids, how do you (or how did you) make time to talk about these questions with…See More
Cathy Donahue replied to Cathy Donahue's discussion Declaration of Nullity"Thank you, too!!
I'll keep you in my prayers as well.
Cathy"
F M Basanez replied to Cathy Donahue's discussion Declaration of Nullity"Count on mine as well, if they are of any worth.
I am going through nullity process myself.
It hurts a lot, hope finally helps to heal.
Whatever the tribunal concludes...
May truth and justice prevail.

Cathy Donahue replied to Cathy Donahue's discussion Declaration of Nullity"Thanks, Kathy! They just received the first affirmative response. Now we have to wait for the automatic appeal. Continued prayers would be much appreciated!

Kathy C. replied to Cathy Donahue's discussion Declaration of Nullity"I don't know if this is still something that is happening, but I just saw your post and I thought I would let you know that I will definitely pray for all involved. I know my husband's sister and her now husband went through the process…"
Cathy Donahue posted a discussionDeclaration of Nullity
My husband's youngest sister is engaged. She and her fiance are waiting for a declaration of nullity from his prior marriage to be able to move forward with their wedding plans. Unfortunately, they have encountered some bumps in the road. Her frustration with the people managing the process is spilling over. In a moment of anger, she mentioned leaving the Church over this. Could I ask your prayers for her and her fiance, that they will persevere in faith? Could I also for prayers for the people…See More
Cathy Donahue replied to Diana H.'s discussion Poll on crying it out..."We used CIO on our oldest. She would go through phases of sleeping well/not sleeping well. After we let her cry it out (at 15mo), she was fine.
Our middle one, he didn't want anything other than his pillow and his lovey (a babydoll when he was…"
Cathy Donahue replied to Anne Matthews's discussion Cell Phone & Text Monitoring Services"We got our daughter a cell phone last summer, just before her 14th birthday. We purchased it for her to use to contact us when she was going on a trip with a Catholic choir. We also knew she would need a phone later on that summer when she started…"
Kathy C. replied to Cathy Donahue's discussion Swine Flu Vaccine"I have already had my two sons ages 4 and 2 vaccinated with the nasal one. As soon as he is allowed my husband will get his as he has asthma. I just can't risk them getting sick with something that I could have prevented.
We prayed about it…"
