The Visitation of Virgin Mary to Elizabeth

This is a first for the Squishy Jesus Taxonomy: Baby St. Jesus and St. John as fetuses! The little guys may be unborn, but they still have halos.

St. John isn't looking so hot--do you think he's bowing before Squishy or keeling over?


Mary and Elizabeth remind us of just how difficult it is to hug without smashing halos together.
