This post today comes with a very sad heart. Like all of you and the world, we are mourning the loss of 20 beautiful, innocent children and 6 adults who were HEROES in the face of evil. I wanted to share some meaningful and comforting pictures of The Virgin Mary which brings my family and I much comfort. I hope this brings you a little comfort as well as we all try to pull together and grieve as a nation.
I also wanted to include a scripture that helps me and gives my heart some peace during this heartbreaking time.
The Lord Is My Shepard
The Lord is my shepard, I shall not want.
He maketh me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,
he RESTORES MY SOUL,
He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for YOU are with ME;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
Surely goodness and LOVE will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD FOREVER.
Psalm 23 ~ 1-6
May Our Lord bless us and have Mercy on us.
Blessings and LOVe~ Stephanie

It's an awful tragedy, we are upset here in France about that. Horrible to think about those poor people who will never see their children growing up... Too bad, too sad.
Love your virgin I collect chinas one of the turn of the last century.
