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.

Hi Pam! I am so glad you posted this here! You still need so much support and so many prayers. I will certainly increase my prayers for you.

I think you should just sit back and enjoy your children right now. Really re-connect with them. There is nothing in a text book that is more important than your relationship with them. Read lots and lots of books, go on walks, swing them at the park, go down the slide with them, read some more, bake cookies together. In other words, just BE with them.

I think you should also really concentrate on creating memories with their grandmother. Include her in everything that you can and spend lots of time with her. Be sure to take lots of pictures.

I will pray for all of this. You are carrying so much right now, why don't you let God carry it for you? That is what He is here for. I wish I could be there to give you a hug!

Love and Blessings,
Betsie

PS My Ben says "I need to pray for my friend, the other Ben!"
