Feast of St. Therese

The Feast of St. Therese easily makes the Cotter family Top 10 Feast Days list. St. Therese is the patroness of missionaries, therefore she is the patroness of FOCUS, therefore we get the day off to celebrate. With Kevin turning in the manuscript for his first book in the wee hours of Monday morning, having today off has been quite a blessing.

To start the day we had French toast, in honor of our French patroness, and prayed her morning offering.


The kids made some St. Therese paper dolls from Paper Dali...


and Bean did a crossword puzzle from Shower of Roses. You can find it under "printable activities" towards the end of the post.


Finally for dessert, we had St. Therese's favorite treat, yummy eclairs (from the freezer section at the grocery store).


Nothing too fancy here this year, but feast days don't have to be fancy to be memorable!

Be saints, it's worth it!
