The Most Important Personon earth is a mother. She
cannot claim the honor ofhaving built Notre Dame
Cathedral. She need not. Shehas built something moremagnificent than any
cathedral-a dwelling for an
immortal soul, the tiny
perfection of her baby's
body…The angels have notbeen blessed with such a
grace. They cannot share inGod's creative miracle to bringnew saints to Heaven. Only ahuman mother can. Mothersare closer to God the Creatorthan any other creature; Godjoins forces with mothers inperforming this act ofcreation…What on God'sgood earth is more gloriousthan this: to be a mother?
