The church has long used the concept of sacraments--outward signs of inward grace--to name the spaces where God meets us in an especially present way.

Having children takes the focus off yourself, which I'm really grateful for. I'm so tired of thinking about myself. I'm sick of myself. You feel you want to be there and not miss out on anything.
