Loving Lupita: Twelve Days of Mary Love: Day 4



Some ask me with a puzzled look in their eye “Deb, what religion are you?”
They are confused by the images on my wall of Our Lady of Guadalupe placed next to the Ganesh and Prison Art Crucifix which is hung near the Holy Water ...

Virgin a Day 12

 My dear friend, Laurie, randomly decided she needed to come visit for the weekend. She drove 3 hours. We hugged, sipped, laughed and all that. And because her jeans were adorned with our Virgin de Guadalupe I decided to honor the past twelve days with her hip-line...nuff said.
and one more thing...on this day I honor you, Laurie, 
as I celebrate my birthing date of my son 
Kyle Mackey Broughton,aka Scooter, because for a brief moment YOU were his surrogate mother, 
his "Mary"and my voice, my rock, my beloved friend. 

  This completes Virgin a Day for 12 days.

Virgin a Day 11

Holy Protection.
Saintly Secrets.
Madonna Moments.
Virgins a plenty.

Folded hands, closed eyes, golden auras, 
draped linen and flowy gowns.
Candle-light, inscense, chanting, praying, singing.
Peace. Serenity. Calm. Motionless.
I was constantly surrounded by Holy Protection.
She was watching me from every corner, 
blessing each moment and guiding me into the next.
Regardless of ethnicity or religion, I fancy the notion that these beautiful Virgins provide a sense of safety and protection.

This was my favorite in a cemetary of San Miguel, Mexico.

Virgin a Day 6


On this day, I dedicate my favorite Marys 
to my sweet Rebecca


I will never ever forget the day I opened an email from her 
inviting me to walk hand in hand with her 
along the cobblestone streets of San Miguel.


If opportunity knocks on your door
do not neglect
time and money might be an obstacle
but I promise you
it is worth every effort

Rebecca, Deb and Stephanie

 The end results are priceless 
and life long friendships
are only the beginning of 
"wild things occurring"
