My mother taught me to live!

     I can't believe my mother is gone. I am confounded and numb! My mother has always been such a vibrant lady.
     My mother loved life! She adored children. There was nothing that could warm her heart or make her smile more than that of a child. She loved animals and birds; especially her Pomeranian Abby. Nothing gave her more pleasure than working in her garden and watching the plants grow and blossom. Red birds and blue birds graced her world in admiration. It was a simple and uplifting joy she found in watching birds; their flitting about in a day or playing in her gardens sand or bath. She truly found amazement in their flight and play. Her potted plants and flowers gave her great joy as well.
     If ever there was a perfect mother it was my mother. She truly knew what it was to care and nuture her children in body, mind, soul and spirit. When you were down she could quiet your fears. She could sooth the hurt that made your heart ache.  She taught strenght when faced with adversity. She taught how to get up and face life when it seemed greater than you could face. Her love of God spoke from her heart.
It was through my mothers courage and love that I learned to live.
