Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

MaryEllen -- Wunderbar! Or in Irish Gaelic - Dia Duit (God to you!)

Yeah! Please keep healthy and don't worry about the breast-feeding bit; my Mom wasn't allowed to breast feed the last 5 of 7 and we all turned out PRETTY well !

Hug them for your friends at 4Real!
