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.

Love the ideas, Jen! It was that term "turtle doves" that really struck my 3 yo at Mass, and he kept repeating it, and was looking for an illustration of the turtle doves.

But I'm aghast if you think white chocolate is really chocolate.

I don't....but I do like white "chocolate".

I was thinking too that it could be fun if you had a candy mold of a dove you could pour in some melted Ghirardelli white chips to make white turtledoves. Just 2 with your teatime...for the two turtledoves presented in the temple. That sounds fun! I may try that next year.

Bumping this, and I wanted to share a most lovely image of the Presentation. I have it in my kitchen.

Okay, my computer is going wonky on me, but this bottom link works. Don't know why the first try didn't, and I can't get the preview post window to open on my computer, either. Oh, to be a tech-savvy mom.

That is such lovely image! Please don't think me irreverent, though, for observing that Simeon looks a lot like Gandalf in that picture
