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.

OH NO, Helene.....let's dispel that thought right now...it doesn't come back, Dear!!!

I have all that is mentioned, and feel so much better knowing I have such a distinguished crowd to keep me company in my hazy brain days.

I was so embarrassed this past weekend when we went back to our hometown for Easter, and people I have known for years I was struggling to come up with their names!!!! We have been gone for almost two years, but I felt so feeble minded! (Oh, Honey, what was your name again, you who I saw in prayer group and shared great conversations with....who are you?) I chalk it up to sleep deprivation and lots of chaos!

My kids also know that they all have two names...at least!

My youngest is 4 and I have weaned her so long ago...

Recently I asked the children to get me the paper towels from the front yard. I meant front hall.

That example sticks firmly in my mind of something I do a lot. I worry about it a little. Im only 34. Maybe 33. One or the other. too young to lose it in any case and I only have 3 kids.

Just this morning I had to ask my husband how old I am. I'm only 29, but it seems much longer than that.

I have to ask my dh how old I am all the time. I'm usually within 2 years of the right age, but never certain.

I struggle with this and I think a lot of it is just not enough uniterupted sleep! Im like a ping pong ball many night between the 4.

Though taking fish oil and vitimin D has helped a lot i think that perhaps 2 insomniacs should never marry . We just bred more insomniacs.

God Bless-Maggie
