Prayer of Mothers
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.

A Little About Me
Hi! I'm Jessica, a Roman Catholic wife and home educating mother to our nine children. I was home educated myself, along with my eleven younger siblings. I have a special devotion to St. Therese, through whom I have been given much help and many blessings--the beautiful "Shower of Roses" that she has sent my way! Here I will record a few of the blessings I treasure. Please remember that what you see here is just a little glimpse at our lives, so please say a prayer for us, as we continue to strive for holiness.

Thank you everyone!! Rascal was excited to see all of your birthday greetings!
A friend of mine took pictures since I was so busy, and for some reason my camera wasn’t doing well in the dark bowling alley. I’ll post a few once I get copies from her! =) The boys had so much fun!
Jamie ~ I’ll post the link to the directions when I do the party post. When I was making it, I was wishing I would have just ordered a cake, but in the end it didn’t turn out too badly! Rascal loved it, and so did all the boys!
Regina ~ I KNOW!!! I noticed he was in a couple of the pictures. =) He came to Rascal’s party and is growing up so FAST!! We missed you guys!
Kids’ birthdays are most special to the mamas… hope you had a great day too, Jessica!
Birthday Blessing for your sweet boy!
