Water Rosary

I've seen this picture of the water looking like a rosary before--all over the internet. But for some reason, tonight, while reading Father Tim's "Hermeneutic of Continuity," I was moved to post about it.

It's interesting, not miraculous. It's like seeing shapes in clouds. Am I taking the fun out of it? What is miraculous is that this baby is the son of an unwed mother. She could have aborted the baby. Thank God, she didn't and now we see
Valentino Mora, being baptized.

Here is the accompanying text:
"This was taken at the baptism of Valentino Mora, son of Erica, a single mom of 21 who asked the photographer to take a picture of her son for free. The photo of the baptism of Valentino Mora is sweeping the Internet, because at the time the priest pours the Holy water over his head, the water flows in the shape of a rosary. This story began at the Parish of the Assumption of Our Lady in Cordova, Spain, where the baptism of a one month baby took place. At the time that Valentino came to the baptismal font for the sacrament of baptism, Erica asked the photographer Maria Silvana Salles, who was hired by other parents baptizing their babies, to take a photo of her son as a favor, since the young mother had no way of paying for it. The photographer, moved by Erica's request, agreed to take a photo of Valentino. Maria Silvana works with a traditional camera and had to send the film to be developed to a shop in Cordova. When she received the photos, she noticed with surprise that the water poured from the head of Valentino was a perfect rosary. The photo of the baptism of Valentino has awakened faith in the people of Cordova who come to the humble home of Erica and Valentino Mora to touch him. The truth is that this sign of faith has mobilized this town in Cordova, whose neighbors go to Maria Silvana's store to buy the picture as if it were a prayer card."

You can see God's work all around you. It's wicked awesome.
