My dear, sweet mother-in-law in Somalia
Just sharing one of my favorite quotes today. I want to thank the many women in my life who embody this: my mother, my daughters, my sisters, my aunts and cousins, my dear friends, and very special readers. I would not be who I am today without you. Thank you for your quiet and loving example!
My four daughters.
“The world has enough women who are tough; we need women who are tender. There are enough women who are coarse; we need women who are kind. There are enough women who are rude; we need women who are refined. We have enough women of fame and fortune; we need more women of faith. We have enough greed; we need more goodness. We have enough vanity; we need more virtue. We have enough popularity; we need more purity.” Margaret Nadauld

I couldn’t agree with you more. We need more women to truly understand who they are in Christ and embrace the way God created us. Thank your for this post.
Thank you, Tina! I just wanted to post something positive today.
What a beautiful family! Having just lost my dear sweet Momma, I couldn’t agree with you more….My beautiful Mother has always been my greatest example!!
Thanks, Beth. My mom is still with us and as wonderful as ever.
I love this quotation because I will never be someone who does big things in the world. It’s nice to know that even quiet people can contribute something.
I’ve decided that there are maybe a thousand people in the country who do the really “big” things while the rest of us are the ones who do the small, truly important things.
You have a very beautiful family. My Mom has been gone almost 11 years now. I miss her so much. She was a wonderful example for me.
Thanks, Juanita. I am so glad to still have my mother with me. There is such a special bond.
