Happy Feast of the Immaculate Conception!

I am always on the lookout for a beautiful statue of Mary as a young girl that I saw at a friend's, who had received as a gift (so she didn't know where it came from). It was a very simple stone statue, contemporary looking, but I was attracted by the depiction of Mary looking so human and young, more lovable, less distant. Her eyes were downcast and one hand touched her heart and the other hand was extended palm up in that familiar gesture, but the girlishness of Mary made it seem more affective than it does in the more queenly images of her.
