I think she was a wonderful example.<BR/><BR/>And honest to goodness she has engraved on her tombstone these words; "End of Construction; Thank You For Your Patience".<BR/><BR/>We, as christians, are all a work in progress. We all have regrets about past behaviors.<BR/><BR/>Isn't it wonderful we have a Great God and he forgives in a big way.Debrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16140046660664590895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30454920.post-21772422457678156702008-07-03T09:26:00.000-05:002008-07-03T09:26:00.000-05:00Oh this is easy.

She had issues with the kids and would have an issue with her husband, she was real. And what was amazing was how she handled things. No, it was not always perfect, but I watched her closely. She prayed about her issues, she turned to God for her answers. Yes she was human and made mistakes,had her flaws, but it seems when you have a person up on a pedastal you overlook those flaws. She was the one person I would turn to when I had issues with my kids or husband. I needed her to guide me through those rough waters that she had already tested. Her wisdom was so appreciated, her friendship was valued more than she would ever know. And she is missed more than I can tell you. It is still so hard to continue through life with out her. She was a very good example of a good wife, mother and grandmother, and yes FRIEND.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12881554728710759245noreply@blogger.com
