Today is the feast of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Yes, it's Mary's birthday . . . and like Fr. Larry said this morning at Mass "I am not going to tell you how old she is , but about how great she was . . ." We get to celebrate this day with a special meal and maybe even a birthday cake. But of course it got me thinking about everyday around our homestead with Our Lady. So in honor of Jesus and His Mother I present this simple little post as a birthday gift.

Mary is the garden. The Holy Spirit dropped a seed into Mary in a spiritual manner. The seed grew into the flower that is Christ.

to Our Lady by giving us
his feathers to decorate her.
