Celebrate Motherhood

Today we celebrate motherhood. Happy Mother's Day!

Camille Monet with a Child by Claude Monet

"Our womanly being is intended to be "mother". Just as our bodies have been created with the capacity to bear physical life, our souls have been especially created by God to bring spiritual life to the world. Thus, our call to motherhood is in no way diminished or negated by a like of celibacy or an inability to physically bear children. All women are meant to bring life." ~ Johnette Benkovic from Full of Grace: Women and the Abundant Life
