Moment of Innocence

The very moment every parent cherishes...
The Nativity Story... (movie version)

The moment your new born child is wrapped in blankets (swaddling clothes) and nestled up to you, a moment as a Mother (parent) you will never forget. I wonder how Mary looked at her Son and Savior as he grew, and then up to the moment she knew that his mortal experience was over. Did she remember this moment that forever bonds a child and his Mother, or the moment that the spirit told her that she was caring God's child, the Savior to the world, or the moment that he began teaching her and the Elders what God's Love truly was and so on. I venture to say that she remembered ALL of it!! His whole 33 years!! EVERY minute, EVERY detail, no matter how small it seamed, just as any of us would as we saw our SON die a horrible painful death that we knew we could not stop. 
And then THIS very moment would be the thought that I would cherish and hold fast to...
