description: Mary was just one of the carefree young girls who went to the well at dawn to get water. I enjoyed watching her because she seemed unusually sweet and innocent- and sincere. No one knew what to think when she fled so suddenly to Elisabeth's place in Ain Karim. Rumor had it she had seen an angel but I didn't put too much stock in that. After all she was young and impressionable. But when she came back obviously pregnant how the tongues did wag! I watched her from a distance all through the years. I heard about the remarkable flight to Egypt with her husband Joseph and was glad they chose to return to Nazareth after all was said and done. They had a cute boy; they named him Jesus. A person couldn't help loving him. I could tell she was really wrapped up in her children especially that boy. I had to scratch my head a few times though when he started doing miracles-pretty uncanny that. But his preaching well that sure had a way of touching the heart. That same heart nearly broke when I saw her grief when her boy was crucified. You'll read about it through Mary's eyes through her words and her tears in this her diary.
