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.

I have two boys whose lives all but revolve around Legos.

We also have a new kitten who doesn't see the difference between Legos and kitty litter.

Small boys cannot be relied upon to close doors or keep lids on bins and I am tired of washing Legos.

Ideas?

We keep ours in 4 (very large ) drawer carts. Could they be relied upon to close the drawers?

Orange peels will keep kitties out of potted plants. I wonder if some oranges in the lego bin might help?
