Mary is humble

"Our Lady means to me my mother, my second mother, because she's really kind, she's humble and she brought Christ into the world for us which is really good because he saved all of us. So for me she's this humble person who just gave herself completely to God; she accepted to carry the saviour of our world for 9 months, which isn't easy. And I love her for that. And I love the fact we can pray to her. We can tell 'Can you please go tell Jesus that I need him. Can you please show me the qualities of a woman. Can you show me how to be a woman in this kind of environment, not being trendy or anything, just be humble and just be yourself really.' And I love that about her, I can relate to her."
