Interesting find...

The girls and I went school supply shopping today, fun times...while shopping at Office Max, we found a book called "1001 Things it Means to be a Mom". Following are a few of the quotes I've read so far that hit close to home....

Being a mom who has lost her husband redefines "lonely"


Being a widowed mom means the only people you can talk to at home are children


Being a widowed mom means having to explain, through tears, that Daddy is with God


Being a widowed mom means showing your kids how to persevere even though life has dealt you a difficult hand


Being a single mom means knowing that, while two-parent homes are best for children, life doesn't always work out that way


The more I read, the more I find....I'll keep you posted :)

Lesa, I can not imagine the "aloneness" of it all. I can't.

Keep reading.

Keep learning.

Keep moving forward. Persevere.

You are surviving.
