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.

I just finished the book Family Reminders by Julie Danneberg. It is a lovely little story set in the 1890s in Cripple Creek, CO. The events are loosely based on the life of the author's grandmother. The book is listed as a beginning chapter book at our library, and makes for a quick read-aloud option or an easy living history option. It was SOOOOO good! I cried through half of it. It is a beautiful story of a family working their way through a tragedy to rediscover joy.

Just thought I would share!
