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.

Hi Elizabeth
Lissa has a few links on her left side bar explaining "blog carnival".

Here in the Bonny Glen

My understanding: on a designated day, one blog gathers links to different blogs on a certain topic.

Yes, the carnival host posts a call for submissions, and on the specified date organizes them all (links to people's posts on the topic) into one big post. I started the Carnival of Children's Literature (monthly), there is a weekly Carnival of Homeschooling and a Carnival of Education, and dozens of others. As Helen said, I have links in my sidebar (scroll down on the left) to several, plus there is blogcarnival.com, a site that lists carnivals on every topic you can think of.

Here is a link to a blog carnival hosted by Semicolon
In the future I will try to be more conservative in my posting behavior. I could have put all these posts in one.
Sorry

Also, our own Amy(able) has just announced a brand new carnival she is going to host on Mother's Day—A Celebration of Heart and Home. Such a lovely idea, Amy--Brava!

She is accepting submissions through May 7th.

And the next Carnival of Children's LIt is back on my site in May...submit now through May 20th, any post related to children's books. Also, anyone interested in hosting a future CCL, drop me a note!

Guess who's [gulp] hosting the next Catholic Blog Carnival?

I am.


The theme is devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary. Please consider sending me your links for posts about our Dear Mother.

Private message me or use the email link at my blog.
Thanks!

Dawn, anything will do!
All these beautiful Mary Gardens, baskets, flowers ... memories of a visit to a shrine or praying the Hail Mary. Rosary activities, prayer groups with the children. Hopes, dreams of what you would like to accomplish. Notebooks, lapbooks, great Marian books ... Your favorite Marian devotion: angelus, Regina coeli, Magnificat, Rosary, miraculous medal, scapular. Your favorite Marian apparition...
Whatever has to do with the Blessed Virgin.
(I think I gave up using full sentences today.)
