    I'm not a homeschooling Mama anymore, but I still think like one and love the opportunity to teach my children like you've done here! Love there pages, such cuties you've got there!

    Nice job Jessica! Where did you find the pretty flowers to dissect? Something pretty and springlike in the gloom of winter.

    So fantastic, Jessica! You make me want to be a better homeschooler. And that's a very good thing. 🙂

    Thank you for being such an inspiration.

    The flowers were actually a birthday gift from my Hubby. (He knew I had been wanting some for the kids to dissect.) We have been on a super tight budget this month, but he was able to get them at Albertsons for only $3! We dissected three of them, and the rest are still in a vase on our kitchen island! 🙂

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.
