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.

We have been reading lots of dinosaur books lately, especially the books by Jane Yolen. Here is my 7yod's version, based on Jane Yolen's "How Do Dinosaurs...." books.

How Do Dinosaurs Unload the Dishwasher?
By Mary Elizabeth Sauer

How does a dinosaur unload a dishwasher? Does he pick up the dishwasher and throw it out the window? Does he dilly-dally and say, “I don’t want to do this!” to his mom? Does he throw the dishes all around? Does a dinosaur throw all the racks out the window? Does he sit down and whine and roar and scream?

No, a dinosaur doesn’t. He dries all the dishes. He loads the dishwasher again. He turns it on and when it’s done he unloads it again, just the way he did before.

The End
