I feel like I know this woman of God. In fact, I tear up every time I read about Wanda. My sweet mother will be celebrating her 90th birthday on June 22nd and I treasure every day I have with her.<br /><br />Hugs!<br />JudyJudyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17083048394782111088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-760167183316444479.post-56511659574138315282010-04-29T14:51:58.109-04:002010-04-29T14:51:58.109-04:00Oh My Goodness Traci, you always get me with these...Oh My Goodness Traci, you always get me with these posts. I just want you to know that I pray for you and your family as you miss your mom. You are so great at relaying what a wonderful person she was. You were all so blessed for having her in your lives. And you know, your children will never have to be scared of life after this world because they will always know she's there waiting for you all! I've never shared with you, but the Godly woman your mother was reminds me so much of my Dear Ma Sue. I still miss her so bad and its been over 12 years since she went to be with the Lord. I still have lots of dreams with her in them and its always normal for her to be there, I never think that she's passed in the dreams. Its odd really. But I just wanted to take a minute to thank you for sharing all these stories, they are a blessing to me.Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06851535636397953162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-760167183316444479.post-63787745016713191052010-04-29T09:02:20.462-04:002010-04-29T09:02:20.462-04:00Traci, this is one of your best Wednesdays with Wa...Traci, this is one of your best Wednesdays with Wanda posts ever! I know your heart is sore as you think about your mom, but you've given us a great gift here by showing us just how much her writing means to you. This is such an encouragement to us to WRITE to our loved ones--in our own handwriting! As much as I love email and blog comments (and I do! SO much!!), there's no substitute for sometimes putting pen to paper. I'm so glad you have these treasures from your mom, and I love the way you displayed them in your home. :)Richella Parhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04353214472648623583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-760167183316444479.post-20142151526169856842010-04-29T02:43:45.694-04:002010-04-29T02:43:45.694-04:00My mom will write in print, instead of cursive, to...My mom will write in print, instead of cursive, to my younger kids too.

Your dedication to your mother in your side bar caught my attention. You and I live parallel lives. My father was diagnosed at the end of August with terminal lung cancer. We were all devastated. He passed away 9/28/09, just 6 days after your mother did. I just miss him so much. <br /><br />Your mother sounds like she was an incredible person and a wonderful woman of God. My father was a man of God and he was incredible too. Two weeks ago was his birthday. It was a hard day...but God is good. Just 4 days later, Simon was born to my nephew and his wife who are currently living with my mother.<br /><br />I have not been as good as my sister in recording my thoughts on my blog about him...I somehow just can't seem to get the words right. If you are interested you can check out my sister's blog and learn more about him <a href="http://justseven.blogspot.com/search/label/dad" rel="nofollow">here</a>.Priscillahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17112988669895238674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-760167183316444479.post-54587694529588769372010-04-28T12:52:45.509-04:002010-04-28T12:52:45.509-04:00What a fantastic way to display the card, Traci!! ...What a fantastic way to display the card, Traci!! When my husband and I got married, he lived in Alaska and I was in Atlanta. His parents moved all of my things to their home in MI. The AF then came and packed it all up; his mom took the opportunity to send all of his leftover things on up! When I unpacked it all, I found the most incredible letter from his grandma and had it framed along with a photo and the coin that came with the letter. It's a wonderful reminder of the spiritual heritage she left us! And it's an amazing conversation piece for visitors!Tara G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09199251979718649256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-760167183316444479.post-77709628133564509232010-04-28T11:24:30.457-04:002010-04-28T11:24:30.457-04:00How beautiful!
