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.

Announcing the birth of our 4th child and first girl, Emily Suzanne! Born August 28, 7lbs, 1 oz and three weeks early! There's a funny story with it but I'll have to elaborate later...

And asking for prayers in getting breastfeeding established. None of my other children would latch on properly and I had to pump exclusively for them. I'm REALLY hoping that this one will do things the easy way!

Back to feeding...

Oh, Susan, I am so happy for you and your family. I will pray for the breastfeeding issues. That never went well for me either.

Congratulations!
