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.

Where do you look when you want a daily dose of inspiration for your role as a Catholic Mom?

I am not looking so much for practical advice (at least not with this post, I actually LOVE practical advice), but rather for inspiration to pour yourself into your role as mother. Inspiration to live in the moment and love your children with all of your being. Inspiration to be fully present to them. To see God in them at all times. To find God's grace in our everyday lives as mothers. (Specific inspiration for HSing mothers would be great, too!)

Do you have a favorite book? Blog? Other resource? (Besides this forum, which provides a lot of inspiration!)

Well really what I get my assurance and comfort etc. from is my daily reading . I feel lost if I do not have His word each day .This is also my affrimation as well so the word is really a must for each day .
Then I have Mother Teresa the joy of loving it is almost always also an affirmation of what I've been praying focusing on that begining of the day .
For night time I rty and read my 7 sorrows prayers and I have a copy of simple abundance I really like it . I like day books . little bits of inspiration .
   Sorry I don't have a specific mum book . I don't visit blogs much because I get overwhelmed to much . I need my day to remain simple so more often then not it is the simple saints who keep me going

I really got alot of inspiration fromThe Invisible Woman, When Only God Sees, by Nicole Johnson

That's all I can think of right now on the fly, but I will add more later if I can think of some.
