WOMAN

No one can understand the thoughts and feelings of a woman quite like another woma. That's why God gave us ....mothers, sisters, daughter, and friends. A sister is a special gift given by a God who understands our need for someone who can be even closer than a friend.Let us LAUGH togethere LISTEN to one another's words LEAN on one another's strength LOVE one another from an honest heart. Then nothing we face will seem TOO BIG for us to overcome. Strength What does it take to be strong? Most of all a sharing of strength with strength knowing that real strength comes from the joining of hearts. and hands. Juneiva

A CHRISTMAS GIFT TO MY FAMILY

How does a mother express love? In tone, in touch, with eyes, voice, hands, and lips. ..through DISCIPLINE ..and through DEVOTION ..by BEING THERE ..enfolding close or URGING ON .. holding a hand or LETTING GO. All are a part of language of Love. I must admit you're grown an adult woman , wife and mother and an adult man, hubsand and father.Yet I keep a secret place deep in my heart sef-tucked, eternal and there you'll always be my little girl and boy. What is a son or daughter? So much a part of me and yet so much the seedling of a man or woman. Love Mama
