Admiration Maternelle

This is one of my favorite paintings by Bouguereau and it expresses just how I feel with my baby in my arms. I love you so much, Michaela.

Motherhood

Thanks be to the Father, who manifested unlimited power within me by drawing forth from nothingness another human soul and giving it to my care.

Thanks be to the Son, who has revealed his eternal wisdom within me by fashioning another flame of human life so delicate that it can neither be seen nor heard, so strong that it will live forever.

Thanks be to the Holy Spirit, who has shown his everlasting love within me by forming another human heart to spend its days on earth in praising God and returning love for love.
