Remember these? I finally had a chance to finish them tonight, in addition to painting a few more, just in time for our Little Flowers Tea Party tomorrow afternoon. Whew!! I sure hope the girls like them!

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.

Jessica: Those are so sweet. Those little girls are going to love them. Too pretty!
And inspirational. I want to paint some, too, but we're in the middle of packing for a move. But all I want to do now is paint. ; )
Many blessings to you and the the little recipients of these cuties.
Awww….they'll love them!
Love them Jessica! They all look so cute standing there together.
I might have to make some of these for our Little Flowers next year.

These are so sweet! I bet your Little Flowers will *love* them! Wish I had something as wonderful prepared for out Little Flowers Lucheon this week…that's ok, they'll enjoy whatever I have set before them I think 🙂
How could they not love them?
What a GREAT idea!!! When I find an extra 10 minutes (or, you know, just one would do!), I might try to do this for our girls.
What size are the wooden figures?
Thank you everyone! The girls all DID love their little St. Therese Dolls. 🙂 Yay!!!
Aimee ~ These were the smallest size, the 2" girl dolls. You can see the three different sizes together in this post.
They LOVED them! You did a lovely job!
