Model and Patroness of a Family, a Wife, a Mother, and a Mystic.
I have a strong devotion to Bl. Anna Maria Taigi. She has blessed our family with one major miracle and a number of “tiny” ones. She is truly an example of a devoted wife, a loving mother, and an accurate and amazing mystic. I’m excited to announce, too, that more information on her canonization is coming soon!
Here’s the official website for Bl. Anna Maria Taigi run by the Vice Postulator for her cause (Fr. Michael Pintacura).

Well, that’s subtle.
Andrea Tantaros makes a number of very good points. Oh, and I would rather not see Mrs. Pelosi’s face again, so I’m posting a picture of the author.
