Blessed Mama, We Love You
On the eve of your day, Saturday, we give you these sweet drawings that your girls made for you (as I'm sure you saw already from your spot) as they spoke love notes to you. As we prayed a decade of the Rosary, Madge and Peach colored some pretty pictures of you and Pita wrote her note on the back, folded the picture and placed it before your image with St. Joseph and your Babe. Madge, at first, wanted to run upstairs to get a little picture of you as you appeared on the hill of Tepeyac. But, she drew a pretty, stained-glass-colored one of you instead. She could not stop telling you, "I love you," as she drew a bouquet and leaf on the back of her picture with "I love you." We do love you. Thank you for being our sweet and gentle Mama.
