St. Agatha, Virgin and Martyr (Shrove Tuesday)

Born in Sicily of noble parents, St. Agatha suffered dreadful torture at the hands of her persecutors, but she was healed on the following night by St. Peter in a vision. Other sufferings were inflicted upon her, and from these she died in 254.

Maria is quite a little girl! First of all, she is very particular about what she wears. The t-shirt she is wearing in these pictures is her absolute favorite. Often, when she is not wearing it and Lisa has not snuck it away to the laundry, she wants to take it to bed with her. Today, she refused to wear pants.

She also loves to cook. Whenever Lisa is in the kitchen making dinner, Maria has to make dinner for her animals. Of course, she is very generous and always lets mommy and daddy have a taste (or many, many tastes, "mmmmm").

Her favorite recipe at the moment is "soup", although sometimes she serves up juice instead.
