"She had one desire only: to love God and to serve Him in everything"

The Saint for mothers - Blessed Anna Maria Taigi. From Colleen's blog:

Blessed Anna Maria transformed her home into a real sanctuary in which God had the first place. Docile to her husband in every way, she avoided anything which might irritate him and thus disturb the family peace. Serious and hardworking, she saw to it that nothing was lacking to her family and, in so far as one in her impoverished circumstances could, she was generous to the poor.

I pray that we may find inspiration in the life of this holy wife and mother.
