St. Margaret of ScotlandI forgot to mention today St. Margaret of Scotland!! (Born about 1045, died 16 Nov., 1092) She in particular is a wonderful Saint for we wives/mothers to look up to as she was the mother of something like 9 children I think. She was married to a horrid Scottish king, Malcolm III,and I guess she made the most of it, prayed for him and did a lot of day-to-day sacrificing because I believe that he became a better man after being marrried to her for a while. -And she became a saint from having been married to him! She also is very wel-known for having been a very strong Catholic queen, devoted to prayer. -Holy royal people were quite rare.
St. Margaret, pray for us!!
