I received this question by way of my web page.  I realize it's 
technically off-topic, but if anyone can point me to some sources I 
could give this person I'd appreciate an off-list reply.

Thanks,
Dave

    I am just beginning an investigation into the prayers that Jesus's mother 
must have surely said while he was growing up.  When mothers share their 
prayers, formal or not, with their children, the mothers shape the future of 
their children's faith.  The question of Mary's prayers has been with me for 
some years, but tonight I saw your site while looking for something else so I 
thought I would ask. Where would I begin to look for such prayers?  I read 
only English, so they would need to be in translation, or I would need to 
learn Aramaic or Hebrew :)  We live a long life.  "A Mother's Prayer" sounds 
like an overly sentimental sickly sweet card I saw as a child at truck stop.  
That image aside, the Holy Spirit touches the heart strings of a mother and 
makes them sing prayers.  If you have any ideas about where to start, I would 
appreciate your direction.
