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.

What a Christmas gift! And that blanket!
So happy for you all on this most memorable Christmas.
So happy for you and keeping her little heart in my prayers. savor every little newborn gurgle, coo, snuggle and that precious smell of a newborn baby.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! I love the one of the two of you. Rest now, Momma!
Yes, she's very beautiful! May the Lord bless you both!
Congratulations! Your little Rose is beautiful. I am sure your children are happy to have her home and Mom too!
Oh, Jess, she's scrumptious!!! I am so glad you are home with your family. We're praying that her tiny heart heals up in no time at all.
By the way, when I showed my children her picture, they ALL said, "Mom! She looks JUST like Annelise!" I guess to them, all newborns are created identical!
Congratulations! She is adorable!
Jessica, you do liturgical celebrations so well!! Only you could have "timed" having a baby to fit in perfectly with the proper O Antiphon!!! lol!!!
God bless you all, especially little Rose's heart.
Peace and joy!
Dear Jessica,
Such wonderful new that you are home and enjoying this time with your family. I am sure the children are just loving her to pieces.

So very happy to hear that you're both at home and doing well. I don't think she could be any more perfect. So fresh from God! It's like a glimps of Heaven. 🙂
Continued prayers for a good recovery and healing for Rose's heart.
May God bless you and your beautiful family!
She is beautiful! We will include her and your family in our prayers.
So precious! Snuggle up in front of the fire and have a blessed Christmas. What better gift!?
Congratulations, I'm so glad she's home!!!!
She is just beautiful!!!!
Wish I lived close enough to kiss those sweet cheeks and bring a meal for you all!
Continuing to pray for her little heart to heal.
PS I have a picture on my blog for you, of someone in a pink softie…whenever you get a chance, not that you'd have time to even look!
Congratulations! She is beautiful!
