Happy Mother's Day to all of you wonderful, amazing, patient, loving, kind, hilarious, inspiring, prayerful and joyful moms. This is one of my all-time favorite mom quotes. I keep it posted on the bulletin board at my desk. Enjoy your day!
"The Most Important Person on earth is a mother. She cannot claim the honor of having built Notre Dame cathedral. She need not. She has 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?" Cardinal Mindszenty
