Honor her for all that her hands have done

My dear mother turned 73 today!
Thank you Mom, for everything you've done and are..


"She is clothed with strength and dignity;
    she can laugh at the days to come.
She speaks with wisdom,
    and faithful instruction is on her tongue.
Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting;
    but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.
Honor her for all that her hands have done."
~Proverbs 31:25,26,30

Happy Birthday, dear mom

The prime truth of woman, the universal mother

"She was maintaining the bold equilibrium of inferiorities which is the most mysterious

She was maintaining the prime truth of woman, the universal mother:

that if a thing is worth doing, it is worth doing badly."

~G.K. Chesterton

Beauty is vain
