Happy Belated Birthday Mary

In honor of Monday's Feast of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, would you like to respond to the following request to celebrate our Blessed Mother with the wonderful women of Behold Your Mother? Feel free to respond to Sarah directly with your submissions:

Mary Moments: the Birthday Edition
This month, we'll be focusing on the Blessed Mother's birthday, traditionally celebrated on September 8.

• What are some of your favorite Marian recipes? If Mary was coming to dinner, what would you make?
  
• What do you give a mother who has everything? What will your gift to Mary be this year?
  
• In reflecting on "another year older," how does the Blessed Mother serve as a guide, role model, and mentor to you?
  

Submit by 10 PM EST on September 10, using the online form or by emailing me at peerybingle [at] gmail [dot] com. If you have a story to share but no blog, feel free to email me your story and I'll put you live as a guest post here on my blog. We would love to have a truckload (or more) of entries to celebrate the Blessed Mother's birthday!
