Why We Watch the Super Bowl

Gabriel giggled and giggled over this and aked me if we could watch it every day.

I expect everyone else in the world already seen this commercial, but we don't have a TV feed so this stuff is new to us. Not that we really feel deprived, mind you. But, we do get a huge kick out of the clever ads like this. Dan's got the TV rigged with some old-fashioned rabbit ears and something digital -- Who knows what? I don't understand it... But, anyway, we'll be getting the Super Bowl here this Sunday. Dan and my brother will be rooting for Pittsburgh.

But most of us here will watch for the commercials.

And the guacamole.

Heavenly Father, we ask You to guide our children in the choice of spouse. Don't let them be carried away by false charms or be fascinated by mere outward glamour, but guide their minds to look beneath and beyond all external attractiveness for the deeper things which alone are worth while.

Especially let the choice be of one who is a fervent Catholic, true in thought and word and deed to those ideals which are Yours, especially the value of their purity.

Dear Father of us all, give Your guiding help to our children, who are Your children, too. We will be letting them go soon, but please don't ever let our children go from you. Amen

St. Valentine, patron of romantic love, pray for us!

O, St. Joseph...

...whose protection is so great, so strong, so prompt before the Throne of God, I place in thee all my interests and desires. O, St. Joseph, do assist me by thy powerful intercession and obtain for me from thy Divine Son all spiritual blessings; so that having engaged here below thy Heavenly power I may offer my thanksgiving and homage to the most loving of Fathers. O, St. Joseph, I never weary contemplating thee and Jesus asleep in thy arms. I dare not approach while He reposes near thy heart. Press Him in my name, and kiss His fine Head for me, and ask Him to return the kiss when I draw my dying breath. St. Joseph, patron of departing souls, pray for us. Amen.
