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.

WE'RE HOME!!! It's just an infection that I need to take antibiotics for and that was causing pre-term labor symptoms, but I'm not in real labor. Thank goodness. And THANK YOU ALL for the prayers.

While at the hosp. I was reading Redemptoris Mater and so much there (Mary's motherhood, faith, obedience, absence of understanding, etc.) just gave me great peace. She's awesome and I could really feel her prayers and all of yours.

Thank you again from the whole family, and good night :)
