15 Days for Panagia

During the Dormition Fast, I thought it would be interesting to post 15 different things about the Theotokos, that may not be common knowledge. I have a great book published by Holy Apostles Convent entitled The Life of the Virgin Mary, The Theotokos that contains some incredible stories, not only in reference to her life but the childhood of Christ as well. I am going to look through there to try and find some but I'd love to learn some of the things you find special about her life.I'll start posting them on August 1--the first day of the fast--so if anyone has anything they'd like posted please email them to Sylvia{at}OrthodoxMom{dot}com.
