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.

I found some neat books at bookcloseouts.com today called, Countries and Cultures for Young Explorers. They're on sale for $2.24 with the instructional fair sale. They seem to have some neat activities. I found   India, Australia, France, and China

Anyway, if you buy $35 or more (which is easy to do... ) you can use coupon code: lighthouse   and password: bookcloseouts for $5 off your order.

I know they have had the Japan and Mexico books in the past, but I couldn't find them today.

Well then, should I post about the neat animal, leaf, fossil and US landmarks rubbing plates I found at Oriental Trading...or the cute 10 piece life cycle set, or the color paddles...

Noooo, not me! I'll not be guilty of leading the masses to buyingland!

Oh, Vicki- I have been eyeing those rubbing plates! They look like so much fun. Dh keeps telling me not to order things that we'll just wind up moving, but it's so hard to hold back!
