We recall today the Cardinal's poem:
"MOTHER 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?
Celebrate Mother's Day every day of the year.
