MOTHERS DAY

 Here's what I wrote last year on this day.  I like it.

MOTHERS DAY

 The most important person on earth is a Mother.

She cannot claim the honor of having built the Notre Dame Cathedral.  She need not.  She built something more magnificent than any cathedral:  a dwelling for an immortal soul, the tiny perfection of her baby's body.

The angels have not been blessed with such a grace.  They cannot share in God's creative miracle to bring new saints to heaven. 

Only a human mother can.

Mothers are closer to God the Creator than any other creature:  God joins forces with mothers in performing this act of creation.

What on God's good earth is more glorious than this:  to be a mother?


Happy Mothers Day to the mothers of my grandchildren.
