Not at all. But the Bible tells us not much about Mary, accept that she found favor with God. We know no specifics.
As opposed to Paul or Peter or David or Abraham or Moses.
Those have something(s) to meditate on. They all point to Christ.

It takes a remarkable perspective, bordering on perversity, to maintain that Christ’s virgin mother does not point to Christ:
My soul doth magnify the Lord
and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
For he hath regarded
the lowliness of his handmaiden.
For behold, from henceforth
all generations shall call me blessed.
For he that is mighty hath magnified me
and holy is his Name.
