Poetry
My Momma gave me a gift that reaches farther than she may every know.
She gave me a legacy to uphold.
A legacy of faith hope and joy. A legacy that will live long after we are gone.
She taught me right from wrong and that on Sundays, you always go to church.
She taught me that honesty is always the best policy, that forgiveness covers a multitude of sin, that a soft answer turns away wrath, and that I should turn the other cheek no matter what someone else had said.
She taught me that just because everybody else does, is not a reason why.
She taught me that nothing is impossible with God.
No dream is beyond reach, as long as God is the weaver of the dream.
She taught me to cherish the laughter and memories of family and friends.
She taught me how to give to everyone else and not to think of myself.
She taught me to trust God, even when things looked hopeless.
She taught me how to be a Godly wife and how to be your husband's best friend.
She taught me how to open my home to everyone and to make it a safe haven for my kids.
There were a few things that she did not teach me, in fact I do not have a memory one of these things in our home:
She never taught me to say I can't, I quit, or I don't care, but instead we learned to share, to love, to work hard and to be thankful for all the blessing that we shared.
We may have not had wealth or fame, but we knew that we were loved just the same.
