A woman is calling a leaf that has what many see as the face of Jesus on it a "blessing in Nature."
The Metro West Daily News first reported the story of the "miracle" maple leaf late Friday night, CBS station WBZ-TV reports.
According to the report, Sudbury resident Mimi DiMauro was doing yard work with her family when she spotted the leaf that, to her, looked like an image of Jesus.
She told the paper that three-quarters of the people she showed the leaf to saw Jesus. Others said they saw the face of Bob Marley or John Lennon.
DiMauro told the Daily News the image of Jesus "seemed to be a symbol of hope in a world where everything seems to be negative."
"It's like finding a four-leaf clover," she said.
DiMauro decided to share her story of the maple leaf with the public because of Easter and the arrival of spring.
