Well, the roads are extremely icy, and I have already heard of many accidents this morning, so we won't be able to make the drive to Mass. It makes me sad when I can't get the boys there to serve... They love it so much! As do I, and it is First Friday no less... I am...
Father in heaven, grant me the grace to appreciate the dignity which you have conferred on me. Let me realize that not even the Angels have been blessed with such a privilege—to share in your creative miracle and bring new Saints to heaven. Make me a good mother to all my children after the example of Mary, the Mother of your Son. Through the intercession of Jesus and Mary I ask your continued blessings on my family. Let us all be dedicated to your service on earth and attain the eternal happiness of your kingdom in heaven. Amen.
