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.

as I mentioned on my blog this morning, our college student is coming home for Christmas! Yippeeee!

Please pray that his finals go well (he's got to maintain a 3.0 or better to keep his much-needed scholarships), that his flight goes well, that he gets LOTS of working hours in while home (so he can afford another semester), that he doesn't eat us out of house and home, and that he enjoys being home with kith and kin.

As my dh remarked last night "y'know, he left a boy and is coming home a man" ...

Oh, and if you can keep it a secret ... we're going to try and surprise his siblings and grandmother!
