Last night Monica, Jennifer, Teresa, and I met with Henry to do the mix on our CD. We had thought we were going to have to scrap the Silent Night/Lullaby piece, but we were able to do some juggling with the levels and smooth things out. The mixing takes longer than the actual recording because he plays it through and we tell him where to make adjustments, he makes notes, and then he plays it again to record it. We mixed 6 of the songs and have another 7 to do. We should finish by September at the latest.

It's supposed to be nice out today. It's been humid and damp the last few days. I'm going out for my walk/jog and then I need to check the garden for any goodies that might be waiting for me.

I need to get started on Maddie's baptismal gown. I have the machine set up and the yarn picked out. Today is the day!

Word of the day:
Tuesday of the Nineteenth week in Ordinary Time

Today the Church celebrates : St. Philomena, St. Clare, Virgin (1194-1253
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Matthew 18:1-5.10.12-14.

At that time the disciples approached Jesus and said, "Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?" He called a child over, placed it in their midst, and said, "Amen, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoever receives one child such as this in my name receives me. See that you do not despise one of these little ones, for I say to you that their angels in heaven always look upon the face of my heavenly Father. What is your opinion? If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them goes astray, will he not leave the ninety-nine in the hills and go in search of the stray? And if he finds it, amen, I say to you, he rejoices more over it than over the ninety-nine that did not stray. In just the same way, it is not the will of your heavenly Father that one of these little ones be lost.
