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 ordered our oldest's graduation cap and gown (and tassel)!!!! It all feels so real now! Our support group orders them together (one mom takes this job), so I just emailed her his height, and that he wants royal blue, not white. They can wear either. Our colors are blue and white. The boys usually wear blue, and the girls, white. Sometimes all the kids wear blue, it depends on what the family has, I guess. LOL



WOW! This is all so real now!    This surely is a very bittersweet time!

Blessings,

Tracy

Oh Tracy....I know!!!!!!!!

Libby just got measured, and eeeek! I can't believe it.

It's black, I suspect, though I am not sure. Blue sounds much nicer.

It is so bittersweet!

Oh, Tracy!

My dh and I both wore blue w/ gold tassel for high school graduation.
So did my oldest two.
I wore a black gown for college graduation.
