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.

Dear friends,

We are so blessed by each other’s company here at the boards and within our blogging community. We have so many wonderful ideas to share - so much inspiration to take from, and give to, each other.

And so we would be very pleased if you would join us in a *new series of blog fairs* celebrating the loveliness in our lives ...

Please stop by Real Learning, where Elizabeth has all the exciting details today! Learn what it’s all about and see how you might like to participate! There are so many areas to explore – where do we find loveliness in our life? How do we create it?

It all kicks off tomorrow with Meredith’s Fair of Simple Elegance in the Kitchen! And there are many, many more planned!

Any questions? Ask away! Any ideas? Please share!

I don't really read the blogs much but this was beautiful!        Meredith, you made it perfect! ('Course this wasn't the best one for me to read as I have the world's ugliest kitchen. )

You are all much too kind, and it was MY pleasure to put it together. I wanted to add photos/clipart throughout but I'm having "issues" with getting pop-ups to work on my posting page on my main blog in typepad. They're graciously trying to help me fix it, but alas, no fun visuals. Anyone with a blog/website can host, looking forward to Helen's Learning Spaces Fair!!

Again thank you for your nice comments, they mean alot
Blessings!

I was just checking our Loveliness Fair schedule and realized Helen will be hosting the Learning Space Fair next Monday!

Helen, when do you need our posts by?
