Pray the Rosary
Posted on October 26, 2021 Leave a Comment
By Kim Roberts As October and the month of the rosary draws to a close, I can’t help but reflect on the goals I set for this month and did not achieve. As the month approached, I told myself I would pray the rosary every day without fail. I planned to deeply meditate on the […]
Keeping the Faith

By Kim Roberts As I’ve mentioned in previous blogs, I have three children – two out of college and one in high school. All three have been, and are currently, active in our parish CYO. Since this is my second go-round through CYO with my youngest child, I’ve noticed some changes in the makeup of […]
The World Today

By Kim Roberts As the events of the world unfold around me and my family and I watch with utter disbelief what is transpiring, I find myself searching for answers and finding solace in my faith. I do not know how I could live in these ugly, turbulent times without my faith. I recently read […]
Listen to God

By Kim Roberts God works in mysterious ways for sure. Things that are not even on our radar manifest at the most perfect time. I had been at my job for six years, working parttime and not actively looking for a new job. I was comfortable where I was, used to the routine and liked […]

By Kim Roberts My youngest daughter, just like my oldest daughter, is a competitive cheerleader, meaning she cheers year-round. Practices start in the summer with competition season kicking off in the fall and going through the new year, culminating with the Super Bowl of cheerleading – The Summit held at ESPN in Walt Disney World.
Holy Family Reflections

By Kim Roberts I recently attended a Council of Catholic School Cooperative Clubs meeting at St. Clement of Rome in Metairie, and Father Andrew Rudmann, parochial vicar of the parish, addressed the group. He captured my attention immediately with his first question, “How long do your children exist?” After a moment, everyone knew the answer, […]
This Is The Day The Lord Has Made

By Kim Roberts I was watching a documentary in January about basketball legend Kobe Bryant commemorating his life on the one-year anniversary of his tragic death. During the documentary, several things stood out – one being the reason he changed his jersey number from 8 to 24 while playing for the Lakers. While most […]
Mother is more than just a word

By Kim Roberts Hands down, one of the most rewarding jobs I’ve ever had the privilege of undertaking is becoming a mother to three perfect (most of the time) children. I would not trade one moment of being a mother for anything in the world. Nothing has meant more to me or been more rewarding […]
Volunteering at School is a Gift

By Kim Roberts I have been asked to be the president of the parents’ club at my daughter’s high school, much to my daughter’s chagrin. I happily accepted the position and, even though this is a disjointed year, to say the least, we are doing what we can to contribute and lift the girls’ spirits. […]
In God’s Time – Dealing with loss
Posted on December 8, 2020 1 Comment
By Kim Roberts I still can not wrap my head around the recent death of a dear friend. Shannon never met a stranger, she was the most caring, giving, Christian woman that I have ever met. Her smile, which seemed to be always present, literally lit up any room she entered. In my 13 years […]

By Kim Roberts Thanksgiving has always been one of my favorite holidays. For the past 20 years, I have had the honor of cooking for my family and extended family in my home. I enjoy planning the menu, the prep work, getting up before dawn on Thanksgiving Day to start cooking the turkey and setting […]
