F has a new favorite book, Who Is Coming to Our House
Yesterday it sounded like “bay” but today she is getting that second syllable in there. “Baby.” “Baby.” Then she grabs the book, closes it, and shoves to towards me to read again.
Stumble it!

St. Paul hit the nail on the head when he said, To the pure all things are pure, but to the impure nothing is pure (Ti 1:15). It is a tragically impure world that labels the purity of a baby at the breast as "gross." For those with the purity to see it, a nursing mother is one of the most precious, most beautiful, and most holy of all possible images of woman. (source)

How sweet! Baby was actually J’s first word. I think it’s a great one. Now whenever S looks at J she says “baby.” Way easier to say than Jordan, I think.
Of course, the reading the same book 20 times thing, as I know, is not quite as endearing, but at least you got a payoff in the end.

That book is a real favorite around here too. The pictures are so beautiful, and I love the one near the end where Mary looks so pregnant and tired - it’s so real.

The spider clearly was there to keep the flies away from the baby. So long as it didn’t mess with Mary, I’m sure it would be allowed to stay. At least, that’s the rule re: spiders at my house!
