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.

There's no way I could ever forget your birthday my friend!

Hope you are having a healthy, happy day - nice and cozy and not out in that horrid icy storm going on right now!

I am having banana, coconut, lime cake for my birthday cake - do you want to come and share?!!

I was just remembering that on the board three years ago, as you were posting about turning 40, I was off to the hospital to give birth to my fourth child. I can't believe three years have gone by!

Your day is winding down now, but I hope it was full of happy, tender moments with the ones you love the most!

God bless you!

Elizabeth,

Your wisdom and graceful advice has helped me countless times since I first read your book, and then found these boards. Thank you for hearing and following God's call in your life- you are making a wonderful difference in the lives of so many Catholic mothers. May you be blessed! Happy Birthday!
