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.

Mary reminded me that I wanted to post this beautiful prayer here (and all over my house).

This is from Haystack Full of Needles: A Catholic Home Educator’s Guide to Socialization by Alice Gunther, pp. 126-127.

Prayer for All Homeschool Moms

Dear Lord,
Through the intercession of our Blessed Mother, I ask you to assist me in my vocation as a home-educating wife and mother. Let me be a light to my children, teaching them to grow ever closer to You through work, play, prayer and study. Show me how to be a blessing and comfort to my husband, uniting us in one mind and heart and helping us remember to choose Your holy will in all things. Bless our family with faithfulness, peace, joy, love and understanding, so that we may one day remain forever with you in Heaven.
AMEN!

I'm so glad you shared, Jenn...'cause I don't have Alice's beautiful book yet!
