Oklahoma couple find image of Virgin Mary in shower tile


"An image of the Virgin Mary is in Carol Burrell's bathroom. A remodeling project included new tiles; one shows the figure of the Virgin Mary."
I have no problem with private faith and signs (as long as they aren't pushed on the public as miraculous) as things to build personal faith and piety, but why on earth would the Blessed Mother (or Jesus, or any of the saints) choose to show their image on a shower tile? THAT is what makes me go 'yeah, sure'...
