My Cup of TeaMusings of a Catholic Mom Danielle Bean "My faith and my family bring me an abundance of joy. When I slow down enough to recognize it, I know that my heart spills over with the goodness of God"s grace. When a simple soul is filled with such an overwhelming surplus of undeserved blessing, it"s hard to keep the good fortune to oneself. Thus the biggest part of what I hope to accomplish here is to share the bounty--with my friends, with my neighbors, and with you. As it turns out, happiness loves company, too."
