Sharing Faith & Fashion.

Even picking up toys can be a little prayer.

Today, November 3, we celebrate St. Martin de Porres, a Dominican brother from Lima, Peru, who showed extraordinary love through ordinary acts of service.

He cared for the sick, fed those in need, and helped with everyday chores, even sweeping the floors.

He was also known for his kindness to animals. One beloved story tells of a dog, a cat, and a mouse peacefully sharing a bowl of food under his care. A sweet reminder for our little ones that love teaches us to be gentle, share, and care for one another.

St. Martin reminds us that we don’t need to do big things to show great love.

Picking up toys, wiping the table, or caring for a pet can all become little gifts to God when done with love.

A little faith moment: Before your next everyday task, invite your little one to say:

“Jesus, I’m doing this with love for You.”

St. Martin de Porres, pray for us. Help our little hands serve and our hearts love.

Faith starts small.

November is here, and there’s so much to celebrate!

A month to remember, give thanks, and prepare our hearts for Jesus.

In the Catholic Church, November is dedicated to the Holy Souls in Purgatory, a beautiful reminder that our prayers are an act of love, even for those who are no longer with us.

This month, we’re helping little hearts discover the beauty of our faith through saints, stories, and hands-on play.

Here’s what we’re celebrating:

🕯️ Nov 1–2 | All Saints’ & All Souls’ Day
🧹 Nov 3 | St. Martin de Porres
❤️ Nov 11 | St. Martin of Tours
⛵ Nov 13 | St. Frances Xavier Cabrini
🤍 Nov 16 | St. Margaret of Scotland
🌸 Nov 21 | Presentation of Mary
👑 Nov 22 | Christ the King
🕯️ Nov 29 | First Sunday of Advent
🐟 Nov 30 | St. Andrew the Apostle

And in between? Colorful fall crafts, movement, little acts of kindness, and opportunities to thank God for His beautiful creation.

15 faith-filled activities designed for ages 2-6 helping families make faith part of everyday life one little moment at a time.

📦 November Activity Box: Everything prepared and delivered to your door.

Because faith doesn’t have to be complicated. Sometimes it starts with a little paper candle, a colorful leaf, or a prayer whispered together.

Faith starts small.

Happy All Saints’ Day!

Today we celebrate all the saints in heaven the ones we know by name and the many whose stories we’ve never heard.

In our home, the saints have become part of our family’s story. Some hold an especially meaningful place in our hearts, as we’ve turned to their intercession throughout Olivia’s healing journey.

Today, we’re making a little space for gratitude. For their prayers, their examples of faith, and the ways they’ve helped lead us closer to Jesus.

We celebrate by going to Mass, dressing up, pulling out our saint books, and choosing someone new to learn more about.

And because it’s Sunday AND a solemnity, we’re celebrating with ice cream, too!

Faith starts small. A story, a little activity, a prayer together.

Which saint has held a special place in your life lately? I’d love to hear your story.

All you holy men and women, pray for us.

👻 We turned something spooky into something cute… and something cute into a little faith moment!

Did you know Halloween has Catholic roots?

It’s part of three special days known as Allhallowtide:

October 31 — All Hallows’ Eve: The evening before All Saints’ Day.

November 1 — All Saints’ Day: We celebrate all the saints in Heaven!

November 2 — All Souls’ Day: We remember and pray for those who have died.

Inspired by the sweetest Halloween candy tags shared by Melissa Tablada | Catholic Psychotherapist (thank you! 🤍), we made little ghost lollipops with the note sharing the Catholic meaning of Halloween.

Because if we’re already handing out candy, why not share a little faith along with it?

One little ghost. One sweet treat. One more opportunity to bring little hearts closer to Jesus.

Faith starts small.

Happy All Hallows’ Eve!

Children learn what matters by watching what we make time for.

While traveling, finding a church and making time for Mass can be a lesson all its own: new places, different languages, unfamiliar faces the same God, welcoming them in.

Faith belongs in everyday life, including the days spent far from home. And alongside every new place they discover, children can learn this beautiful truth: wherever they go, God is near.

Do you visit churches when you travel?

A little Where’s Waldo? with a Catholic twist! 👀🌎

Today we’re celebrating St. John Paul II, the pope who traveled the world sharing Jesus’ love.

Through a simple search-and-find activity, we’re helping little hands develop observation, writing and problem-solving skills while introducing little hearts to a saint who reminds us to seek Jesus.

Because sometimes the smallest activities plant the biggest seeds of faith.

Two little hearts that have been held in prayer by so many.

Olivia and Luna met in the hospital when they were just five months old. Two babies, two families, two mamas learning to surrender what we loved most to the heart of Jesus.

We didn’t know what the future would hold for either of our girls. But looking back, I see how God was quietly planting something beautiful in the middle of so much uncertainty.

He gave our girls a friendship rooted in a journey few will ever understand. And He gave us mamas each other, someone to pray with, cry with, celebrate with, and lean on when words weren’t enough, in a space few will ever understand.

Today, on the feast of St. Margaret Mary Alacoque, I think about her devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. A heart that loves without limits. A heart that knows suffering. A heart that never stops loving us through it all.

So many people have prayed for these two little hearts. And perhaps one of the most beautiful answers to those prayers is right here: two little girls simply enjoying childhood together.

What began in a hospital has become a friendship filled with love, hope, and the quiet presence of Jesus.

Sacred Heart of Jesus, may their little hearts always rest in Yours. ♥️
