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.

My favorite is the one of you and Twinkle Toes.
These are beautiful pictures of your family. Thank you for sharing. How do you get your girls to wear dresses each day? Do they ever wear pants or shorts?
God Bless!
i was coming to comment on the same thing as meg. that picture of you and TTs is the best! i’d use that one instead of the one you have in your sidebar – which is a great photo too, but this one is T-rific!
What great pictures! I enjoyed looking through these. I laughed when I saw Snuggles in the stroller with the pumpkin. Looks like you guys had a lot of fun!
Thank you! You all are too sweet!
Shelly ~ I tried adding it to my profile, but I hate how it sort of distorts the photos… I think I am going to just go back to a picture of a flower… I don’t know?! Hum… Maybe this one.
The children are always beautiful, but that one of you and TT rocks. You look great!
looks like everyone was feeling better??? Hope you had fun. Wish we culd have joined in. The kiddos and I went Sunday afternoon with Grandma!
Blessings~

Beautiful pictures!!
I like the baby with the pumpkin and the one of you and Twinkle Toes too!!
OH, heck, I like them all!!
I can’t believe I didn’t post on this one… I thought I had! Those pictures are beautiful Jessica! I love the one of you and TT as well as the one with you and your Hubby.
I was so sad, I remembered my camera but left the memory card at home when we were there.
Amy~ SO DID I!!!! I realized it when we were a mile down the road, and thought “oh well” at least I have my other camera… but then saw that I had left THAT memory card at home too. Thankfully hubby was willing to turn the car around so I could grab them! 🙂
Kathy ~ I just realized I never answered your question… Yes! My girls are always in dresses or skirts. They do have leggings to wear under the dresses, and I have kept a couple pairs of longer shorts for playing outside (at home) in the summer. They love their dresses!!
LOL! Actually we forgot the camera, turned around to get it, and then realized we forgot the memory card too. So I said forget it, lol. I wish we had gone back though… now!
That looks like a fun day at a great pumpkin patch! Fun that they got pony rides. Where are their helmets???!!! 😉 Just kidding. Our insurance requires that children have them on, so I notice those things now.
Beautiful family.
Oh, and that stem is so cool on the pumpkin w/ your super cute baby!
