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.

Thanks for everyone's prayers. Our paperwork is out of the hands of the Haitian social services and it looks like our kids will be home be between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Praise God!!! We are celebrating at our house and we are so very grateful for everyone's prayers.
God is amazing. We get our info by e-mail as that is the quickest and most efficient. The notification was sent Weds evening but I was unable to access e-mail for some very "unknown" reason from Weds pm until last evening when dh arrived home from a business trip and was able to fix whatever was wrong. Instead of sitting here by myself to receive the news - our entire family was right here chatting when I checked the e-mail and we received this wonderful news together.   
God Bless,
Wendi
