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 just thought I'd share the fun craft we did last year. Each month my kids made ornaments based on the monthly devotion found at Catholic Culture. Here are pictures on my blog
At the end of the year they had each made 12 ornaments for our tree. We also displayed the ornaments each month.

Andrea -- I LOVE this idea! Maybe we could incorporate it with Mary Chris' idea of doing a craft a month ....

Thanks guys! Let me know if you have questions about how we made any of the ornaments. I have to thank this group for inspiring me to do a project like this!
It turned out to be very doable and profitable, I hope others have fun with it.
