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.

If anyone has a budding archaeologist or dinosaur lover, I found dinosaur eggs in Target. They are on the end cap in the toy section for $1.99. The kit comes with a plastic dinosaur embedded in an hardened sand egg, plus mini tools for excavating- a wooden "spatula", a little wooden mallet and a paint brush. My ds has been working on excavating his egg for two days now- he loves carefully chipping away at it and carefully brushing the sand off with his paintbrush. He was so excited to finally get down to one of the feet! The sand egg is fairly hard, and it is taking him a good bit of concentration and patience to whittle it away.

Thanks for the tip, Melinda! My boys worked on one of these kits some time ago and enjoyed it very much. I'll have to pick up a couple this week.
