    Olivia shares her experiences of taking young children to Mass- several of the more mortifying moments, and the moments of great grace and joy! She also shares how she is *pretty convinced* that she is the subject of an article called 'Taking your children to Mass, isn't always easy, but it's worth it'- featured in America Magazine in May of 2016. The article can be found here: https://www.americamagazine.org/faith/2016/05/03/taking-your-children-mass-isnt-always-easy-its-worth-it The truth is, that every Catholic parent struggles with their children's Mass behavior, and it's ridiculous to judge other families for bringing their children to Mass. We need to have the confidence to know what is the right expectations for our children at the time and to remember that we are not at Mass to prove to others that our kids are better behaved and therefore more holy than someone else's. We're all in this together!
