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.

Bad combination: a two year-old standing at the end of a brand new box you just purchased to put put all the Christmas wrapping paper in, filled with said wrappings, with a hot water bottle in hand!    ...........and now can .

Oldest dd and I were trying to hurry and organize the 2 boxes of wrapping paper, bows, bags etc. to put them under our bed. Our sweet, adorable 2 year old was hanging out with us. She's standing at the head of dd's box watching and holding the hot water bottle playing with it, fascinated by the slosh and wobbly feel of it. All of a sudden, unbeknownst to dd and I, she decided to bite it, the softness must have been too tempting to not try out chomping on it. The resulting geyser of water that shot out was amazingly accurate at gushing all over dd's box of wrappings. I hollered in surprise and poor cute 2 year old took off for her room. I went down there and she melted away any thoughts of punishment with "I not mean to Mom, I not mean to" in the cute, barely can say it, way only a Two year old could!

Had to share our getting ready for Christmas mishap moment. I know you moms could just picture the moment and relate with your own Christmas "Oh, my goodness!" moments.

I'm thinking we are going to have several of these moments this Christmas. Not from any dc (no little ones), but we have a cat this year and a new puppy is arriving in a couple of hours. Did I mention the cat HATES dogs? I'm sure there will be trouble and things will be broken.

That will become a legendary story at your house. Water bottle sandwich, anyone?
