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.

I can see your daughter and my 3rd daughter being best friends! They definitely have brothers. Cute photos!
How cute!
Your family is a blast!
Okay, where'd you get the cute swim outfit? ~Teresa
lol! I wondered if someone would ask that! =D It use to be SO HARD to find something modest for my girls and I was so excited when rash guards and board shorts became more popular. I purchased the one she is wearing from Target (Lands End has cute ones too but they are alot more expensive unless you can get them on sale) and she has a matching one piece underneath the shorts and shirt. It is cute, isn't it!?!
I do the rash guard/board shorts thing too with the girls. I never got any at Target, though… I'll have to remember that.
Pretty little Twinkle Toes looks dangerous! 😀
Aaah!! So cute!! We do the LE rash guards and skirts for the girls (and me!) — super modest and super cute. I am squeezing two seasons out of it this time as well, which makes the price tag easier to bear=)
goodness she looks so cute!!! I love that smile!
gi jane? jk
she is adorable!!!!! LOVE the shots 🙂
That swimsuit really is fantastic. I'll have to look into them.
Beautiful smile.
