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.

My ds and my dd are taking their piano exams today. At home they participated in Festival, but they have never had exams like these before and they are a bit apprehensive. They have worked very hard and I think they are well prepared, but if you could say a little prayer for them it would be great.

Their exam times are at 3:17 and 3:29 GMT (five hours ahead for east coast). I heard that they had a very nice examiner from one of their friends who took her exam on Monday.

I realize this is not earth shattering should they not pass (well it would be to us), but I appreciate any prayers you can offer. Thanks!

The exams are over. Yeah!
We should know in the next couple of weeks. I think that both of them passed. It was just all the anticipation!

Update 7/27
I just received word from the dc piano teacher that the dc not only passed, but passed with merit. She was very pleased that they did so well on their first set of exams. And so are we.
