Discount Catholic Products {Product Review & Giveaway}
In February, Emmy of Discount Catholic Products guest post on How to Spend Valentine’s Day with Your Family. It was a delight to work with her and when she asked if I was open to doing a product review for her site, I was tickled! Even better, she had chosen a 12 Inch Our Lady […] Read more…

By the Light of the Silvery Moon {Book Review}
