As I remember all the things my mother made for me, every new dress, every piece of underwear, every meal, every kiddah (laughing) spell she got till tears ran down her cheeks, every braid in my hair,,even if she hurt me by combing them and me crying, 😣
every song she sang and story she told of her family of 21 siblings, 😫
I miss not hearing from her but I know she is well taken care of.
Therefore I rejoice in being blessed to have her growing up and teaching me valuable things in life, how to live off the land, work hard for money, treat others as you want to be treated, she had a giving heart and gentle spirit, never do I remember her being mad at any of us 14 children that she has given birth to and nurtured so well.
I've forgiven her for telling me that I would burn forever if I would leave the Amish,
She just had no idea God allows freedom of lifestyle to us,
My eyes were opened and now I am able to teach my children otherwise, even though it breaks a tradition of her desire, I still carry down the good morals to my kids that she has taught me.
and for having a save home growing up with her is worth more than money can buy.
She passed on to be with the Lord 6 years ago, Time is going by quickly.
