Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Adorable that she loves that breast milk! Congratulations, Martha and family. Welcome, Bridget!! Glory to Jesus Christ that your labor was better this time. Thank you for sharing with us; I just love birth stories.

Bridget is a family name for us, going back four generations.

How was the FHC? Congratulations to your son.

Bridget's god-mother took ds to FHC for us. I'm told it went great and without a hitch.

Has anyone noticed that baby Bridget was born on the feast day of Our Lady of Fatima? That is SO cool! We are crazy about Our Lady of Fatima here at our house and the due date for my last baby was May 13. She was born on May 16, but we named her Lucia Grace. Lucia for Sr. Lucia, one of the children Our Lady of Fatima appeared to, and Grace for Our Lady of Grace. I'm sure that Our Lady is smiling down on you both! Congratulations!

Dawn

We noticed!

For the first time ever I was able to watch EWTN (we don't have cable and there isn't any catholic radio here) and they were discussing all about it!
