I married the man whom I love on the sunny day when the air had a smell of happiness. Even the flock of doves flew over us when we came out the church making this day the most special and the most marvelous one. The one I will remember for ever. I thank Saint Anthony for my happiness.

I love swinging over the cliff. It gives me the feeling of flying like the birds. I thank the Blessed Sacrament because I haven’t had accidents by my negligence, and I thank for this wonderful feeling of freedom.

We presented before Our Virgin of San Juan to ask her so that the coyote wouldn’t eat our turkeys. The Virgin heard our prayers and worked the miracle. So when the coyote came next time, the turkeys attacked it all together. They pecked it, and the coyote ran away scared and never came back.

The music is a very important to our family, and it’s with us every day. Even our animals enjoy the music, and there are more singing birds in our garden than in any other. I thank the Virgin for such a harmony and because my children are also good musicians.

When I’m overcome with the sadness or some problems, I have a perfect solution. I fly with night birds and bats at night, trying to reach the moon. I glide with the wind and merge with the night. I thank the Holy Spirit for teaching me how to fly and how to leave the problems behind.

One day I forgot to lock the cage, and the canaries flew out. I was scared that my cat ate them or they flew away in the window. Fortunately, the cat didn’t eat them. The birds didn’t go away and were flying around the room and the cat was staring at them smiling. Then they came back to the cage. Now I leave the cage open so they could fly a little when they want to. I thank Saint Francis for this incredible miracle.

My kitchen was filled with cockroaches. My cat was very lazy to catch them. I didn’t know how to get rid of them. Saint Paschal gave me an idea to bring all my farm animals to the kitchen—the pigs, the ducks, the chicken. They ate all the cockroaches saving my kitchen, although they dirtied it up a little.

The music is a very important part of our family’s life and is with us every day. We love playing instruments near our birds because they begin to sing. It produces a very beautiful sound. I thank Saint Francis because my kids have inherited my musical talent.
