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.

Dear Mom,
Thank you for the years of prayer and sacrifice. Thank you for the tears and work. Thank you for doing right by me even when I hated you for it and it broke your heart to have to. Thank you for always loving me without reserve and without condition. God bless you on this special day and always.
I love you,
Danielle
