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.

Maria,
I just saw this. Big (((HUG))), dear.
It's always so to read posts like these. My heart aches for you and your dd.

I agree with Linda. I always recommend Sally Clarkson's books and she basically recommends the same approach.

I also need to pull out my dear Anne of Avonlea book. The girls and I watched the DVD today and there is one scene where Anne (as the school marm) has to strike a boy's hand after he continually disrupts the classroom. She goes home to grieve to Marilla. She is upset at herself for having to do something which she said she would never do.

I had to get up at that point and don't remember Marilla's words of advice or the conclusion Anne came to. This certainly calls for a reread and I hope I can share something encouraging with you.

Prayers coming...
