I've always wondered what it would have been like to be so intimately involved with the Savior as He was a boy. Did Mary recognize Him for what He was? Did she identify how His actions fulfilled prophecy?
One great insight we get from Mary in the nativity story was her tendency to contemplate. Three separate times Luke states that she "kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart," or "marvelled at those things which were spoken" (Luke 2:18, 33, 51). What a great duty to raise the Son of God!
