There is No Saint Named Kelly {Book Review}
I just discovered this book at The Pauline Bookstore, and I had to pick it up!
I love the style of illustration, and I know I’ve had the same conversation with my own daughter Kelly…
The truth is that EVERYONE up in Heaven is considered a SAINT…we only know for sure the ones by name who have been officially recognized as a Saint, but there are already SO many Saint Kellys up there!

My Dad’s Story {Book Review}
My amazing Mom passed away on July 8, 2025. My Dad still lives in the same house I grew up in, and he’s adjusting to being a widower after 61 years married to my Mom.
He’s learning to cook, do laundry and all the things, and I’ve been going to his doctor’s appointments with him.
