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 actually don't have any Vera Bradley bags but I know some of you here are big fans.

One of my husband's students yesterday sent home a gift for my 3yo daughter which she had received free with the purchase of a bag. It was a really darling set of paper dolls and I was so impressed with them. There were two little girls wearing very modest "underwear" (could have passed for shorts and shirt) and then several lovely, fashionable outfits. They were all skirts--a party dress, ice skating outfits, and a third pair. Plus there were a few purses to go along

My husband didn't know what store they'd come from but as soon as I saw the bags on the dolls I knew.

I was just so pleased to see a lovely, feminine, modest gift being given out by the Vera Bradley stores.

Susan, MicheleQ posted about those dolls here

It looks like they came with the catalog?

They do look like fun!

OH, Susan, I mentioned the catalog because I thought they might still be available, free of charge! Something to put away for gift-giving another time. I didn't even catch your dh's comment....

Oh, no offense! That was a great tip--I went and requested a catalog for myself as well. I have a little sister who would love those in a year or so.
