Four years ago today I received a call no family member ever wants to receive. My Mom was being life flighted with a double bleed on her brain to Emory Hospital. Wow! Friends, family, doctors, prayer chains, phone calls all went into action. I don't want to focus on the negative in this post....I want to focus on three years later...today. My Mom is a giver, a doer, a force to be reckoned with, a donater (sometimes of junk to Good Will :)), a confidant, a dependent friend, a loyal wife, a Christian, a volunteer, a 110%er!
Quotes have been a part of my life as long as I can remember. I have countless little books, magazine articles, copies from the library and the list goes on from my Mom. "To teach is to touch a life." If I had a dollar for every person who has said to me, "Ohhh I love your Mom, she was my all time favorite teacher!" I would be rich. She has touched many lives over the years.
In parting, one of her favorite quotes of all time is, "Bloom where you are planted."
AND BLOOM SHE HAS!
