This week, Jesus is 13 weeks old and his mother, Mary, has entered her fourth lunar month of pregnancy. His head rests on his neck and his scalp hair pattern is determined. He can turn his head, open his mouth, and press his lips together. He can make a fist, move his thumbs, bend at the wrist, and grasp. His heart pumps about 25 quarts of blood a day. He can kick, turn his feet outward and inward, and curl and fan his toes. Child Jesus, growing in the womb, give us the strength to protect all people, especially the tiniest of growing babies.
