She is looking at Christ, the second person of the Trinity in her arms who will eventually die for our sins and ascend to heaven.....don’t you get it?

The question should be: “Did Mary have any inkling of this whole picture at that moment?”

Probably not, but at the Presentation of The Baby Jesus in the temple, Simeon tells her that a sword will pierce her heart. Only eight days later!

No, I didn't...But now I do...It was just a weird way for Mr. Sheen to address the situation especially since you guys call Mary the mother of God and rarely make reference to the adult 'risen' Christ...
