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.
Our Family
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 love her blog too! It was surreal to see you in the same screen. Feels like Catholic family ties or something. Cool! Your joy together is our joy of loving both of your families doubled!! God be praised!

Aw, thank you! It was so much fun to meet and to introduce our children – all except my oldest two who were at camp for the week, but they got to hear all about it as soon as they got back. 🙂

A dear friend of mine told me about you and Sarah about 9 years ago and I have been following you both since, but I had no idea that my friend found about Sarah through YOU. I love this post and the pics.
You two have been a wonderful blessing to my homeschool. I had the privilege of meeting Sarah in person over the weekend at the Great Homeschool Convention and it makes me happy to know that you are friends. What a small world.
