RE: Spring break, when I was a kindergartener in the late 1980s, my California public school had spring break lined up with Easter, and we called it "Easter break." I don't remember when it changed, but at some point I remember being upset that we no longer had an Easter break. It's kind of crazy to me that within my lifetime Easter has sort of been marginalized out of the public sphere.

Easter break! Now wondering if I actually had that too as a kid…. (I was in California public school, kindergarten at least, in the mid 90’s) haha

Love Cardinal Newman’s Stations.

Thanks for linking the EPPC link. Just sent it over to my sister. She is a np for a NaPro Dr and just went to the training in Omaha for it. She is astounded by how much she learned that is gate kept from most OBs because of the gigantic influence of contraceptive companies in the medical field.

I believe it. Hats off to your sister for working alongside a NaPro Dr! Weird it's a niche field women gotta hunt down :')

Listening to Golgotha for the first time—it’s so haunting and beautiful. Thanks for sharing! Also, how ever do you find the time for all this reading? I am impressed and inspired!
