As a small child, I remember walking with Mom. We would go exploring--trekking through the woods, discovering log bridges someone had built over the creek in the Canyon. I can still smell the cedar trees in warmth of summer--feel the crackling underbrush beneath my feet.
When I was all grown, Mom and I spoke for women's groups quite a bit. I would visit her home and we would go over what we were going to say--then we would go for a walk. How I treasured those times.
Then came the day my family and I moved next door. For two years I had the wonderful privilege of walking with Mumsie every morning. We became very close. How grateful I am for her friendship and love. She is still one of my very best friends.
These days, when Mom and I go walking--we walk arm in arm. How I treasure walking with her this way. I am so blessed by the love and prayers of my Mother. She is an amazing woman. Through the years, she has taught me how to laugh and cry, how to journal and how to pray--and especially how to lean on our mighty God for strength. I love you my darling Mumsie. Thank you. ((hugs))
