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.
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.

Well, Jess, you have a teenager! Welcome to a different world. But I'll tell you a secret–teens seem to get along better during the teen years with the parent of the opposite gender, so you have an advantage–at least for a few years till the girls hit the teens! Your family is so lovely though, I'm sure the teens will be a beautiful time for all. Best wishes to Captain for a happy birthday and a big step towards manhood.
Happy birthday, Captain! It's a great age! Growing into a fine, handsome young man. -Genevieve

Happy Birthday Captain!
