Is this Virgin as tiny as she looks? Tiny in stature, perhaps, but mighty in power!

A tribe now, are we? I love the moniker and would serve proudly as a tribal elder if Rebecca would allow me. I love nyour little Mary. Looks like it is on some sort of mosaic or tiled stonework. Cool!

I thought of us as a tribe earlier today too. The Virgin is working her magic on all of us. =)

I love the colors of this one.

Long work and volunteer day so I'm late visiting VAD. Shades of blue are my favorites so your little virgin tucked among the wintry colors appeals to me.

A Virgin a Day: Day Seven

"Our Lady of the Natural and Unnatural World" - created on Polyvore.com/merimagic I call her  "Our Lady of the Natural and Unnatural World." She is omnipresent, all-seeing, all-knowing. She is in the song of the birds, the preternatural stillness before the tornado, the glow on the margin of the horizon as the sun rises or sets with the turn of the earth.

Though many girls were poorly educated in that era, Daniel Anthony was an ardent supporter of quality education for both boys and girls, so the four girls in the family were as well-educated as their brothers. As an adult, Susan Brownell Anthony dedicated her life to the woman suffrage issue. Though she died on March 13, 1906 without having secured the passage of a constitutional amendment securing voting rights for women, others carried on the quest.
