Re: happy new year!
so they finally decided on a name for the blessed event merry mary day!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solemnity_of_Mary,_Mother_of_God
The Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God is a feast of the Blessed Virgin Mary, celebrated by the Roman Catholic Church on January 1, the Octave Day of Christmas. In many countries this day is a holy day of obligation.
The feast was celebrated in the east before the west, but by the 5th century it was celebrated in France and Spain on the Sunday before Christmas. In Rome, even before the 7th century, January 1 was used as a celebration of the Maternity of the Blessed Virgin Mary. In the 13th century and 14th century, the Feast of the Circumcision of Christ had come to replace the Marian feast on January 1. The celebration of the Feast of the Circumcision on January 1 was expanded to the entire Roman Catholic Church in 1570 when Pope Pius V promulgated the Roman Missal for the entire church. In 1914, the feast of the "Maternity of the Blessed Virgin Mary" was established in Portugal, occurring on October 11. In 1931, this feast was extended to the entire Roman Catholic Church by Pope Pius XI and maintained on October 11. Following the Second Vatican Council in 1974, Pope Paul VI removed the Feast of the Circumcision of Christ from the liturgical calendar, and replaced it with the feast of the "Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God."[1] Traditional Roman Catholics continue to celebrate this feast day with the old name "The Maternity of the Blessed Virgin Mary" on October 11.[2]

Re: happy new year!
Just for discussion sake. I wouldn't say there's a problem with that for you. In Catholic Christianity Mary was the mother of Jesus. IMHO, worship should be reserved for the Christ, and none other.
I don't have a denomination, just sayin...
