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.

On January 2nd, On the New Year's Resolutions thread,

I wrote:
Hmmm...not sure about committing these to print :


*To journal regularly, but never to blog.


And...well...I've reversed that resolution . With extensive help from the forum's hands-down typepad expert (aka Lissa), I've got a real live blog, up and running! I think Lissa did a beautiful job. Just looking at the page inspires me to write! So, I just monopolized the nesting urge of a woman who is ten months pregnant. Won't you take a peek at her latest delivery? Real Learning

And Lissa, you can go have that baby now .

Ahhh, but I couldn't. I'm telling you, Lissa did it! My nine-year-old knows more about blog-tech than I do and she learned a whole lot reading Lissa's emails over my shoulder yesterday. I'm still in a preggo hypoglycemic fog...

Very nice! We all knew you would join us eventually. Resistance is futile . . .

The picture of Katie is adorable! She looks like a Foss kid.

Lissa DO go have that baby now. We're fine without you for a little while - really.

God bless!
