Great article - it said so much of the heart of a mother; of course the reason she loves her mother so! Down-to-earth article that speaks of honesty. Thanks

Nothing in gods world happens by mistake. Lifes experiences are enevidible and to choose to be miserable or joyful is what has been my test and through people god reminds me of it daily.

Your mother told you she loved you, daily. That's great! I am #5 of 7, 2 older bros, 2 older sisters. Whenever my mom would address me as "honey", I soaked it up like a sponge. It didn't happen often. I'd always try to please her just to hear endearments. Growing up, she was my favorite person! I was like her shadow. She had so much to do & so much on her mind, it's a wonder she remembered her own name. She was a loving mom, that's for sure! I miss her a lot since she went home in Nov.,'99 . Thanks for a wonderful article!
