Hello All!
Mu husband is a member of the Knights of Columbus. Every month we get a periodical called Columbia which shares historical facts, charitable doings, and inspirational articles pertaining to the Knights and Catholicism. One particular article from this month's issue is on family and I wish to share it with you.
"After ambling about the kitchen, 17-month-old Stella climbed into the empty laundry basket on the floor. I paused from dish duty to make her an offer. "Spin?" I asked, while stooping down to twirl her about in the basket. The joy on her face was clear when she came full circle. "Sphin!" she exclaimed, demonstrating her (near) acquisition of this delightful new word. Around I sent her. "Sphin," she said through her smile. "Yes, spin!" I replied, and around she went again. Each time I waited for her request, eager to please this little daughter of mine. It seemed to me that some of her joy in spinning must come from the eagerness and delight I took in fulfilling her simple desire. This, I think, is a glimmer of what love looks like at the heart of the Trinity."
