Happy Mother’s Day to all my dear visitors here at Shower of Roses. I hope you are having a lovely day! My husband and children surprised me with pretty flowers and the sweetest handmade cards! (Oh! And even my own copy of that brand new CD! Yay!!) Like last year, the children painted little flower pots at the store while Sean and I shopped for garden plants yesterday afternoon. They were all so excited to show me their creations early this morning! Thank you God for blessing me with such a wonderful family!

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.
Happy Mother's Day to you! I very much enjoy following your blog and your beautiful family. Hope you're having a wonderful day!
What lovely flowers, Jess, and what wonderful little blessings you have! I am always cheered by your posts! I could learn something from you–mine have been so dismal lately I'm afraid no one is reading them.
Thank you Jessica. I hope you had a peaceful day. Just returned from my dh surgery. Please keep us in your prayers. I will keep you in mine. You are a wonderful mother.

Jessica,
Happy mother's day. Greetings from Brazil.
Our blog – you already follow and read -, Domestica Ecclesia, has a post on that date celebrated here in Brazil, too.
