I assume the "Queen of England" in your analogy represent Christ (shouldn't that be the King of England?).

Yes, the Queen is analogous to Christ in my example

Your answer still begs the question why do you even pray to Jesus? If you do sometimes and not other, why?

Because God instills within me the desire to ask Jesus' mother for favors, which instills within me a more humble attitude in coming to God in the first place.

Why wouldn't God instill within you the desire to ask Jesus rather than asking Jesus' mother?
