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.

This may be old news but for anyone interested in trees I found a lovely picture book at the library called My Favorite Tree by Diane Iverson. It's actually half story, half field guide. The story is quite simple, just individuals talking about their favorite tree and why. The pictures are nice. The field guide part has information about each tree's size, leaf shape, flowers, seeds, it's habitat (including a map), some interesting facts, and my kid's favorite part - it's wild companions. For each tree in the book, at least one bird, insect or animal is listed that uses it for food, shelter, etc. Anyway, just wanted to let you know!
