The Real Guardian Angels

wikipedia.org's link (down under Holidays and observances) to the human Guardian Angels notwithstanding, the real guardian angels whose feast day it is today are the guardian angels:

"Perhaps no aspect of Catholic piety is as comforting to parents as the belief that an angel protects their little ones from dangers real and imagined. Yet guardian angels are not just for children. Their role is to represent individuals before God, to watch over them always, to aid their prayer and to present their souls to God at death...."
