My Childhood....My Faith....

I recently took my youngest daughter Madyson June to a place of happiness in my memories.

I wanted my child to see where so much of my heart lies, even if in the past.

I was raised by a single mother of seven, a woman who was connected at the soul with the poor Sisters Of Nazareth. I attended Catholic School here in San Diego, a school that was a safe place, where the nuns took care of me and my siblings, my mother....... as well as my mother taking care of them.......

I realized that I had a pretty decent camera in my new phone and took pleasure in capturing some of my childhood memories to share with you here on my blog.

The grotto where we would come to pray as children during school, listening to the beautiful story and history of "Lourdes".....

We were taught to never sit in a place of Judgement, only Love & Acceptance of all God's Children.

Still today, I am able to ask the Blessed Mary, the Mother of God, for guidance and assistance.

What a blessing this school has been in my past, the Sisters from Ireland, the priests that loved and cared for my mother and her children.

I am grateful.
