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.

Wow...I'm completely overwhelmed trying to figure out this site, especially since I'm not intensely computer literate. Oh, well...I figure it's worth trying to connect with other Catholic CM educators.

My name is Becky and I live in Central Minnesota. My husband and I have 4 children (10, 8, 6, and 3) with a fifth due in a few weeks.

We try to implement CM methods as fully as possible at home. I love her philosophy of education and the shove it gives me to try to be, not only a better "teacher", but also a better parent.

My husband is a teacher at a Catholic high school, and we also have a small hobby farm -- dog, cats, chickens for meat and eggs, cow for milk, and a garden to give us lots of produce for the winter.

I hope to glean some information and connectedness through this forum.

Becky

Welcome We look forward to getting to know you. It takes a little time to orientate yourself but I'm sure you will surprise yourself with how quick you become literate. A tip for you, click on the "Active Topics" button at the top, that will show you any chat since you were last on.

                     Yea!!!!!! Hi, Becky! So great that you found us! Hope you're surviving the heat and looking forward to meeting your little one any time now!

Tell that wonderful hubby of yours that we said, "Hi!"

If you can, keep us posted when you go into labor....the ladies here are fabulous prayer warriors!

Many end-of-pregnancy-hugs sent your way!

Thanks for the welcome, ladies!
My due date is August 10th, and our babies have all been born really close to their due date. So, anyone can pray whenever they want. I'll take the prayers!     Thanks you for the suggestion Suzanne. My last labor lasted only 4 hours, so we'll see if I have time to send out a message during labor.
