“The most important person on earth is a mother. She cannot claim the honor of having built Notre Dame Cathedral. She need not. She has built something more magnificent than any cathedral—a dwelling for an immortal soul...God joins forces with mothers in performing this act of creation. . . What on God’s good earth is more glorious than this; to be a mother?”-Mindszenty

End of Days Playlist
Someone was asking me recently about music and labor. I found music so therapeutic at the end of my pregnancy and during the difficult parts of my labor. Music can be so healing. It can be very spiritual. It can help you find strength. It can help set your frame of mind. It can help set a mood. Music did all of these things just when I needed it.
I thought I would share my playlist with you.
