Love is Time

We attended  holy mass today at church.  Ms. Burrito was part of the choir and Mr. Burrito was dressed up as a  a saint  as part of the All Saint's Day  celebration they had  last Thursday.  
I like the homily/sermon that the priest gave  today.   He talked about family, love, and time.  He said that according to a recent survey, an average American family only spend 15 minutes a days  talking to each other and because of  food chains around, they seldom sat down and eat together as a family at home.  

The priest said that Love is Time, that when you love someone, you have to make time for them, spend  quality time with them, and  make sure to let them know how much they mean to you.

I am thankful that even though hubby and I don't have all the riches in the world, we still have time for each and for  our children.

  4. I totally agree with your priest's sermon. Time = love. It's obvious that you and John are rich in love.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Happy Blue Monday, Rose.

  5. Lovely children as always! It is so true that families don't spend as much time together as possibly - we did eat together most days as our kids have grown; even as college graduates, when we can all four of us eat together. Good food and even greater conversation as a family!

  12. yes LOVE IS TIME... not a lot of people can spend time with their children because they have to work 2-3 jobs to make ends meet. that's why we need to buy out opportune time to bond and give quality time with our family.

  23. Very true, spending quality time with your kids is very essential and make it while they are young, coz in a few years they spend it more with friends. :)

  25. how adorable of these little carolers. I honestly like this version, it's like the real feel of Christmas, unlike what we usually have here who only do it for the money.

  29. its a good thing that as early as their age they are exposed to gatherings and programs like this. Its one way of building their confidence. Cute kids by the way

  30. I agree with the priest, now more than ever we should make an effort to spend more time with our family and make sure that no matter what happens communication will never waver.

    Great event for kids and parents too! :)
