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 am so sorry, Donna Marie! Keeping you in my prayers. I've had stomach issues in the past, especially when I eat away from home, but nothing nearly as bad as this. Praying that you have relief and in thanksgiving that you know what the problem is now!

Thank you dear friends for all of your prayers. I do feel pretty burnt out right now. I really need to give myself permission to ditch school for awhile. We have been waay behind because this has been a year of major happenings. I was awake almost all last night because of baaad seasonal allergies and perpetual sneezing.

The kids are so out of schedule and the house is starting to shrink from clutter. I really need a mary poppins.

Please continue to pray for me. I have never felt this overwhelmed in my life. I think it is because I care so deeply and I am limited at times as to what I can do and it takes its toll on everyone.

I love you all and remember your intentions at daily Mass.

God love you!

I wish I could Mary Poppins in and wash a few loads, tidy up and leave a few meals in the freezer, Donna Marie!

Yes, give yourself permission to let go of formal school for awhile. Strip your expectations down to absolute survival necessities. And cling to the rosary!

Hang in there, Donna Marie! I'm praying!

Thank you Anne! You are such a dear friend...all of you...thank you so very much! I had two great days and I am having trouble sleeping again. Always a struggle. I have been walking a LOT (more than 3 miles a day) and that seems to help quite a bit, but tonight it didn't help with the sleeping. I am so exhausted and ...well...just keep praying. I am hoping that tonight is just a temporary thing as I am just getting over a cold. I HAVE to get to October...somehow!

Thank you for thinking of me and for asking for me. This is such a shot in the arm. Please continue to pray. I have to tell you that in many ways I am doing sooo much better than my last 3 pregnancies. Your prayers are working. I always worry the most about the kids and how I can minister to them when I feel so tired and other things affect me. We have so much on us right now. Keep us in your prayers, PLEASE! Miracles abound here!

Bless you all!
Donna Marie

Thank you Jennifer...I do fall asleep with my rosary in my hands!   I do wish you lived closer. Even if anyone helped me, it would be with too much judgmental criticism...that is sad. I know that one day I want to jump in and help other struggling moms without any judgment...just love and compassion. I really want to live that ministry later on in life!

God love you!
Donna Marie
