Beginning yesterday, Pita woke up having a bit of a tummy ache and has been taking it easy since then. Lots of books, lots of rest, even Netflix-viewings! Madge has also been very eager to care for Pita. As Caleb and I finished up dishes last night, the three little people went to the living room to get ready to say the Rosary before we began Friday Movie Night (with a fun viewing of Cheaper by the Dozen, 1950.). As we were about to come in we could hear Madge's little voice praying the Rosary beside Pita (who was sound asleep). Madge was facing the crucifix, and icons of Our Lady and St. Joseph, with her Rosary in-hand. So sweet. Again, today, we found her upstairs with Pita. This time LIttle Caleb had join the girls right in their midst. Madge was praying the Rosary with Pita upstairs, as Pita was lying on the massage table resting, and Little Caleb was looking at his board books. Soon after seeing the girls there, Caleb told me that Madge had just said to him the night before, "Dad, I'm really getting more into the prayers." (She was on the fourth decade of the Rosary and didn't even realize that she had gotten so far in her prayers.) We love you, girls, and Mr. Calsee. Keep growing closer to Blessed Mama. She'll always keep you close to Jesus.
