Santa Lucia Day in the Morning

by Jessica | Dec 14, 2019 | Advent and Christmas, Christmas 2019, St. Lucy | 9 comments

Yesterday I had a really hard day, filled with multiple doctor and dental appointments, and I had no energy left to pull together anything special for Santa Lucia Day… but one of the girls stayed up late prepping for her middle-nameday and we all woke up to sweet songs and delicious treats! 🎶🕯

🎶Maiden so sweet and fair,

Bright candles in your hair,

Santa Lucia, Santa Lucia!🎶

She’s loving her first Advent and all the special feast days leading up to Christmas! ❤️

We have such a fun collection of books, dolls and decorations for Santa Lucia Day!

This year I fell in love with the adorable dolls from Marzipantz! ❤️

Santa Lucia, ora pro nobis!

This is a special tradition your family celebrates! Each photo is darling. Your Chiquita's hair is so long and beautiful! All of your children look so happy to celebrate Saint Lucia together. The Lucy Cats pastries look delicious. How wonderful to have such a helpful daughter…following in her Momma's footsteps!

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.
