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.

Beautiful!! Your little Rose, that is! And the bread! We are going to make ours for this evening.
It came out GREAT!!! I knew it would! And those Lucia and Starboy outfits are so precious!
So sweet! I thought of Chiquita all day today.
So what's Amy's secret?! Mine didn't come out bad, but definitely not as lovely as yours!
What a sweetheart!!! Your bread looks yummmy! We made ours last night for today.
Not only me but also my children have enjoyed seeing other like minded families learning about St. Lucia~ The photos here are wonderful! What a blessing it is to grow in a family as this. Sometimes I look at my children and wonder if they know what a gift it is to learn about all the holy saints.
the little children are adorable ! and i'm impressed with your braided bread crown !
