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 your girls' dresses!

Thank you, Dani! I love the girls' dresses! I originally purchased them during a clearance sale last summer for Christmas and even though they were (and are still!) really big on the girls they wore them anyway. The girls love them too, and I have a feeling they are going to fit for awhile, so perhaps they'll be able to wear them again next Christmas and/or Easter with different accessories, maybe?

Love the bow ties. My guys are totally into suits and ties and bowties. They almost get into a competition on who dresses the best each Sunday. My 6 yr old was actually crying on Holy Saturday that his sport coat was a little snug and yet he was still a little small for the next size that we own. Time to get him a size 6 blazer. It touches my heart that he wants to be so dapper for mass. Happy Easter!
