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.

After a hiatus that was far too long, but much needed, I'm back to my much loved 4Real forums! I have missed it a great deal, and admit to having peeked in a time or two. But, now I give myself permission to post again!
I have tried to keep all the intentions of this group in my heart; I'm sure a lot has changed in the last few months. New and unfamiliar names in particular...I have a lot of catching up to do! But, with the start of the new year, I just couldn't face it without this wonderful group of women!
And, just as an aside, many of the things I needed to work on in my life have improved dramatically, praise God!

So nice to "see" you again, Noreen.
I'm glad your hiatus proved fruitful.

Welcome back, Noreen! You've been missed.

Anne and Erin -- that dig about Spring erupting all over down under is not nice!
ETA: fix my over-enthusiastic typing mistakes!
