Happy first Sunday of Lent!
Peter got to go to Mass with Grandma and was a PRO. See, they *do* get better eventually! So that meant that I got to take both twins to Mass with me - they mostly haven't been allowed in the same pew ever since they hit 6 months and started crawling in opposite directions, so I was wary...
Well, it could've been worse? I made the rookie mistake of not having everybody go to the bathroom before Mass, so of COURSE all three girls needed to go during the homily, and of COURSE the bathroom was totally full so it felt like we were missing all of Mass... The homily was still going when we got back in though, do apparently the eternal bathroom break only took about 7 minutes!
I had to crack up though, because a girl who was maybe 9 or 10 saw me helping all three girls and what a zoo it was... "Oh!" She explained, a lightbulb going off, "Now I know how crazy it must be to look at MY family! There are nine of us kids."
She's so right! Sometimes I see a large family and think, "Wow, that's A LOT of kids! That's so crazy!!" And then I count, and it's great kids than we have... We must look totally insane, in the best possible way, of course!
I had to pull out some of the purple I own, though there's not much! Affiliate links below:

I hope your Lent is going well so far! And that nobody's providing you with extra penance...
