Moms...Love....Faith

This is the year of  babies in our family and of my second grandson, Carson Tiberius Day!!!  What a love and joy he is, healthy and strong!!  My mother will have four great grandchildren by the end of 2012!! Praying that each new birth brings forth a healthy child, even though that has not always been the case.

All babies are not born healthy and strong, but all are loves and joys.  Beautiful, innocent little beings who are received into their families' hearts brimming with so much wonder and amazement, that mothers become tigresses ever so protective of their newborn.   Moms are just like that...so soft, sweet and giving to their love ones, stern when need be. But she this gentle mother will change in a heartbeat to do battle against insurmountable odds to help and protect her child.

This is the experience I have had with the Moms in my family...my gram, my mom, my aunts, my sisters, my daughters and my nieces.  This band of women would take on the world for their children, but even better, these wonderful women would don their battle gear and march into the fray for ALL children.

No mother should ever be told her precious three year old will die by the age of 18, there is nothing you can do...take him home and love him!!  I believe  these to be "fighting words"!

This blog/article is what sparked this blog:

And this blog from an Angel "sister" about another Angel "sister"

These women, this "Angel Team", show the same fierce determination and love for all children (furbabies included) as they would their own .  These are my sister Angels, of which I am very proud!!!

Then, she sighed, believing each moment was proof of her favorite scripture—Jeremiah 29:11.
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
