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.

Enjoying the end of Mardi Gras here (a hot fudge sundae if you want to know the truth )! I know my soul is really ready for Lent when I am dragging my feet!

BTW - My cousin explained to her kindergartener this morning that they would be giving up their little trips to McDonalds for Lent. He asked, "For how long?"

She said, "Just until Easter." She thought it sounded better than 40 days!

I love it! I keep saying it!

Maryan - I like that too. I think that is going to become my "phrase" to help me get through the rough patches of Lent.

Thanks for the post!
