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.

Thank you all for keeping us in prayer!

Yes. Mission accomplished. Well...mostly.    Still a good deal of boxes. That will come with time...because my 2yo and 4yo are more demanding than usual.

The funeral for our daughter was beautiful. Just beautiful. This time, we brought the kids with us--and having them there was also beautiful. They both sprinkled her grave with holy water and set flowers there. My dd made a card for her sister, that she also put in the grave with Margaret Mary's remains.

Our remaining flowers went to the Sacred Heart of Jesus statue and Mother Mary's statue--which my littles love to do. :)

Hard as a funeral Mass is...it is a balm for my heart and soul...and we have experienced a great sense of peace and consolation from the funeral Mass.

Please keep us in prayer...we do have a long road ahead of us in terms of surgeries for me, etc...

And as a little prayer...my husband is traveling the latter half of the week...Yikes!! :)

Thank you all!

Maggie
