Thankyou, Micki, for the most tender portrayal of Our Lady and Jesus, so loving. That quote is such a powerful one...she is always watching for us as the tender Mother that she is.
d.s.
"Mater amabilis, ora pro nobis."
"Mother worthy of love (amiable), pray for us."
John
d.s. said... she (Mary) is always watching for us as the tender Mother that she is.
