I could not be prouder of anyone than my three children. They have grown to be adults, responsible adults.
When I was a young mother and had three small toddlers at my feet, I was totally naive on how to raise these children.
I looked down to see how small they were and looked up to see how far I had to raise them. Wow! what a challenge I felt. I was not strong in the Lord but I sure look up higher and ask God: How in the world was I going to raise them to be adults, responsible and respected adults.
He started teaching me and I listened and didn't let anyone tell me different. My mother and sister and mother in law thought I was too strict. Well, God had told me how so I was following His rule.
I am thankful I did. They didn't turn out completely perfect but almost. It is God and he did the job through me because I listened to him. I don't know how in the world people can raise their children without God and his his guidance. My children have presented me with nine grand children and my grandchildren have presented me so far with six great grand children. Oh, How blessed I am.
