Faster than a speeding bullet
…Whether she’s running across the room to rescue a toddler or on her way to visit a grown child in the hospital, Mom always gets there in record time.

Able to leap buildings in a single bound…
…Despite the heavy bag she carries (full of secret weapons and odds-n-ends); nothing will stand between Mom and what needs done!

More powerful than a locomotive…
…Laughing in the face of sleepless nights, immune to the effects of loud noise by small people, able to go hours without ingesting anything more nourishing than coffee.

Transforming an apron into a cape and more…
…Though you may think it is just a piece of old-fashioned cloth, think again. Spaghetti on the white shirt? Dangerous situation? Moral dilemma? Never fear, Mom is here!

Armed for any battle…
..Even if you have scoffed your entire life at that bag of hers, filled with what you think is unnecessary stuff, you never know when you’ll need a tissue or a pair of glasses or, more importantly, a rosary or a book!

Master of disguise…
…One minute she’s a cook; next thing you know, she’s a gymnast chasing a toddler or a chauffeur to young celebrities. It’s hard telling when she’ll be in her herding duds or wearing her coach or catechist or collaborator hats.

Unwavering in her faith…
…In spite of the fact that she’s as human as the rest of us, that doesn’t stop her from turning her eyes heavenward, beginning her day with prayer, living an example her children will cherish.
