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.

Our boy wants us to go check out our local Catholic school for next year. He thinks it's prudent to have some classroom time and experience with school logistics in case he decides he wants to go to high school to participate in swim team. We can see his point, given our specific circumstances where we live, but the institutional school situation is not what we would like it to be; thankfully he agrees with us that the public middle school is not an option.

I'm grateful this is a calm reasoned discussion and we have time to pray and think and talk to him. I keep telling myself we have decided nothing and this is only a fact-finding mission.

My husband is peaceful and approaching the question like a man . Frankly I had been revving myself to go all the way through high school at home and I'm feeling a bit lost at the thought what we had been talking about for so long may not be. And oh my, will I miss him if he goes. .
