Thoughts of today 33 years ago.

Thirty-three years ago I gave birth to my first child. A lovely young lady who has given me three wonderful grandchildren. I will never forget the dawning of those first feelings of motherhood. She has been a delightful child, a second mother to our other daughters, not always by choice but sometimes by necessity. She faithfully attended college and got her degree and along the way met and married a man God had destined to be her husband. Together they have followed Christ through the good and the not so good days of life. I think what has brought the most joy to my heart is the fact that they have pursued God in all the avenues of life. It is a joy to be in relationship with them, to have them share their joys and their griefs with us. We, Popa and I, wish her a year of peace and shelter from the storms of life. May the twins quickly finishing potty training and may big sister have a smooth transition as she starts a new school this fall. Congratulations to hubby for making it through his year of probation with SWA. May the new house in the new town be a blessing and may life present many joys this next year. Daughter #1 you are still a delight and we are so grateful to call you ours...your wit and encouragement have meant a lot to us. mom aka: the Nona
