My God I believe in Thee! I adore Thee! I hope in Thee, and I love Thee! I ask pardon of Thee for those who do not believe, do not adore, do not hope, and do not love Thee. ~ Angelic message to the three children at Fatima
We had a lovely and busy Feast of Our Lady of Fatima! Mass in the morning, followed by daily lessons, music practices, lunch and of course teatime :)
Or Dancing Sun project was a work in progress throughout the day as we had painting and drying and gluing and cutting, which was all very well and fine and enjoyable for all, but you'll have to wait for the completed projects tomorrow as we wanted them to be completely dry before hangind them up...
We are reading aloud the beautiful rendition of Our Lady's apperances at Fatima from the Mary Fabian Windeatt book The Children of Fatima, these are the best Saint stories :)
Here's a look at some of our day for Mary:
The big boys decorating our well-worn table...
Our Lady of Fatima a-top our Angel food cake drizzled with Marian blue frosting...
My surprise in the frosting after Violet had served me an angelic slice!
Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for us! I hope you all had a lovely and blessed day with your sweeties!
What an awesome celebration for Our Lady, Mere! (Mariana says the pics make her hungry. :) I love your beautiful centerpience, and even more, I love those beautiful, glowing faces. Love you!
