To all the sweet women I know!

Women have strengths that amaze men.
They bear hardships and they carry burdens,
but they hold happiness, love and joy.

They smile when they want to scream.
They sing when they want to cry.
They cry when they are happy
and laugh when they are nervous.
They fight for what they believe in.
They stand up to injustice.

They don't take "no" for an answer
when they believe there is a better solution.

They go without so their family can have.
They go to the doctor with a frightened friend.
They love unconditionally.
They cry when their children excel
and cheer when their friends get awards.

They are happy when they hear about
a birth or a wedding.
Their hearts break when a friend dies.
They grieve at the loss of a family member,
yet they are strong when they
think there is no strength left.
They know that a hug and a kiss
can heal a broken heart.

Women come in all shapes, sizes and colors.

They'll drive, fly, walk, run or e-mail you
to show how much they care about you.

The heart of a woman is what
makes the world keep turning.

They bring joy, hope and love.
They have compassion and ideas.
They give moral support to their
family and friends.

Women have vital things to say
and everything to give.

HOWEVER, IF THERE IS ONE FLAW IN WOMEN,
IT IS THAT THEY FORGET THEIR WORTH.

This is a very nice post and I agree one hundred %!

You, Natalee amaze me with all that you sacrifice and do for many around you everyday and you usually manage to keep a smile on your face.

I too, mourn for family members who have gone on to the other side and there is hardly a day goes by that I am thinking of your little one. Often it is when I am thinking of the number of grandchildren I have. Everyone of them are dear and precious to me and give me alot of JOY!

Do I count 15 now or after the next one is born next month, I really want to tell people that I have 15 now and #16 comes next month.

But that little one is always there, in my mind. I look forward to the day I get to see, love and have joy! I'll have even more joy watching you have JOY!

Love you alot Natalee!
Happy Mother's Day to you, too!
Love GrandMOM
