Women and Mothers

Vonita 9 Comments

The older I get, the more I realize how we ladies need strong, supportive women in our lives. I loved my mother-in-law, and after I moved to Sydney, I was ‘adopted’ by my church mother, a wonderful older supportive woman who has since moved away. I miss them both, but very glad for the supportive nurturing love they gave to me. 

I am thankful for the strong, kind women I have befriended here on WordPress, and also in my daily life I am focusing on my female friendships. We can bring so much to each other’s lives, all for the better, and we need each other. 

Wishing you all a wonderful Mother’s Day! Xx

In My Heart

I had a mother for a while
A woman to care for me
She cared
She loved
She shared
She cried
Until that day arrived
When suddenly
Without warning
She died

Girl Time

My daughter and I are having girl time. Boys are out on a three-hour cycle. My son is planning to do a ninety km event later this year. He will be twelve. Good for them I say! In the meanwhile my angel daughter has plaited my hair and touched up my face. She is teaching me to paint because she has been “painting for ages”. Her presence lights up my world.
