The author has enabled me to set higher goals for myself as a Christian and mother. This book has given me a perspective of the life of our blessed mother I took for granted. Obedience, love, pure faith, super goals to attain. Thank you!

As a mother of three young girls, I try to make Mary my inspiration in my daily life. This book makes her come alive - she is a real woman, and by the last page she is a best friend.

Not Catholic and raised Protestant, I never had a particular devotion to or interest in Mary. I encountered this little book on a retreat, couldn't put it down, and had to have a copy of my own. I loved the imaginative short reflections inspired by brief scripture quotations. They introduced me to a a real Mary, a woman with deep feelings like any other mother, a woman like me. As I read and prayed the reflections, she became so much more than a plaster statue; she became a friend, a woman I know, and sometimes myself. I loved getting to know Mary in this way. Thank you, Heidi Hess Saxton!
