My Mentor


My mom has taught me the importance of being "great" and not just "good" - a great friend, a great mother, wife, sister, daughter, teacher, and an example of God's love. I don't always succeed, but when I fall off track, she is there to set me straight, not by pressure or direction, but by example. She is the one person who has had the single biggest impact on my life. Throughout this past year, when trials have come concerning my daughter, she was always the first to be there for me, to show me what to do and how to care for a sick infant, reminding me to be strong for Janie's sake when situations arose that seemed greater than I could bare. To me she is a rock and light, always strong-always shining.
