What did the Holy Spirit inspire the writers of scripture to call her? Mother of Jesus or mother of God?

The Holy Spirit inspired John to tell us that the Word that was God and the same Word that was made flesh was Jesus, the only begotten Son of the Father. The Holy Spirit inspired Luke to tell us that this same Jesus that was to be called the Son of God was born of Mary. Would this not make Mary, as the mother of Jesus, also the mother of the Word made flesh, the only begotten Son of the Father, the Son of God, God Incarnate?
