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.

Today is a hard day for me.

Yesterday was my dad's birthday - he would have been 76. Today is the anniversary of his death - he died a few minutes after midnight of his 40th birthday. I can't believe he's been gone for 36 years.

I just got back from retrieving the mail, and in it is the most exquisite hand-made Rosary from Ruth. Ruth, you are such a beautiful prayer warrior for so many of us. Thank you.

All of you who sent me emails, pm's and cyber hugs, you really carried me through the last few days. I'm off to pray for all of you on my new Rosary.

Thanks!
