So…my husband and I are trying to have a baby. Well, there are problems and they are on his end. He would not see a doctor for a long time and I have tried to be prayerful and patient. Well, today he told me he made an appointment (!!! 🙂 ) but that it wouldn’t be until January 2nd. As he was writing it on the calendar, he said, “Oh, apparently it is also the feast day of one of your favorite saints.” (He is converting to Catholicism this year.) Of all days!!!

Well, I just feel like heaven is truly watching over me. I will often stop at the Seton Shrine in my travels and feel a great connection to her. Even if we adopt or have no children, God and St. Elizabeth Ann are just giving me a wink…sort of another reminder to me that it’s all in His hands. Just wanted to share (as I can tell anonymous people but would NEVER tell my friends about my husband’s trouble) with people who understood.
 
What a wonderful wink!

A while back I read a short biography of St. Elizabeth’s Ann Seton’s life, which I found inspiring. Her collected writings were recommended to me, but I haven’t yet had the chance to read them: via.library.depaul.edu/vincentian_ebooks/9/

I look forward to reading them someday–I’m curious to learn more about her based on her very own writings.
