My mom is almost 89. There is such a feeling of comfort whenever I visit her. I don't take lightly the blessing it is to go to her house, feel at "home," and gain from her wisdom. A privilege I realize others do not have. What a treasure she is to all of us, and how I wish I could be half the woman she is. Soft spoken, rarely a complaint, serving us all her life without a murmur. When I think back on her life, she is a prize among women. Happy Mother's Day Mom!

I am always intrigued by the different sorts of lives God arranges for each of us, starting with our birth families. You had wonderful, loving beginnings it seems...what a blessing!
