Remembering Mom!

Remembering my mom this Mother's Day.  She was pretty amazing! She would be 95 years old if she were living today.  She is far better off where she is dwelling now, with her Lord and Savior,  and I am grateful she no longer suffers, as she did those last years.  I will be reunited with her some day!  And what a day that will be!





So..... a few mom facts, in no particular order:

1. She was a school teacher.  It was always her dream.    
2. She was Valedictorian of her senior class.  And quite put out at her brother for running home and telling her mom the news before she got there to share it!
3. She was one of 12 children.  Her mother's first marriage bore 4 children. husband died.  She met and married a widower with 5 children.  Together they had my mom and 2 others.  A true  "yours, mine and ours" lovely family story. 
4. She played the piano. 
5. She taught school all week and still taught sunday school on the weekend.
6. She taught school all day and no matter how tired she was, she  never missed cooking a full meal for the family that night.....no fast food in those days!
7. She loved her family. 
8. She was  a good citizen.
9. She was a servant.
10. She was a true Proverbs 31 woman.
11. And oh...she was so loved by her children!!!  Happy Mother's Day mom! Miss you!
