Day 9 of Mornings with Mary and Friday Shoot Out

Mornings with Mary sponsored by the talented Rebecca has been a joyous meme for me.

I feel I am very devoted to Mary and did not know I did have so many Mary's in my life story.

This meme has not been about Mary as a religious figure only but about the very womanhood and motherhood of a very famous woman named Mary.

Probably the most painted, sculptured, portrayed and sung about of any person in history.
Statues of Earth mother go back even before the story of Mary began.

Now I have seen many candles in the shape of Mary but this one is a little different.

 Several years ago while shopping one of my granddaughters helped me select this.

"Now QMM you know that candle is not for burning. How could anyone burn Mary?

Now you just put it in a candle stick and leave it alone."

Well I did and every time she comes to visit she always checks to make sure I have not lit that Mary candle.

I would say I have had it about 10 years.

My gd is 18 now and every time I look at my Mary candle I will remember the tender, loving child that helped me find her.
