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.

Well, I just got lost over there for half an hour! Thanks, I needed some good chuckles!

I always forget about her blog. Hmmm, maybe it should be my homepage so I can start each day with a laugh.

I love her blog. She answered my question about what to do with kids who whine about going to church awhile ago very nicely.

"what I am saying is that I am just the wrong person to ask this question. Getting up early and tromping off to Mass was not my idea of a good time when I was a child and I sympathize 100% with your whining children. And look how I turned out! (Except for the fainting from time to time.) As a child, the 10 o'clock Mass made all the difference and so did going at lunch time on school days. By then I was awake, and not blind."


Incidentally playing CYO football cured my complaining child because now during football season he wears his jersey and he sits with the team. Which is very cool, obviously.
