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.

Yes, I need that WISDOM asap (see my post on my teen daughter's anorexia!)

Does it get better now? Or is this the final period of suffering so that we can be refined before we face our Maker? :-)

Peace,
Macmom

Being in your forties isn't so bad. And you are much wiser than you realize. Happy Birthday and prayers for your daughter.
