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 don't purge legos, but I do put away sets to pull out later. A couple of years ago I put away some Johnny Thunder (like Indiana Jones) dino sets and our polar sets. We just gave the little ones the dino sets for Christmas, and they love them. They are thrilled to have "their own" lego sets (even though it all gets lumped together in the end).

I asked our son what he does with the *Lego Star Wars* kits once he puts them together. He said, take them upstairs (to his room).

I said, then what? He said, play Star Wars with them!

I guess I pay little attention! But I do know putting them together brings them lots of fun, teaches them lots of spatial learning, and patience. I'm sure God is using them to teach them many things!
