Days 4 & 5

I missed posting what I am grateful for yesterday. So, I'll just add it today.

11/4: I am thankful for my two awesome sons, Nickolas & Don-Mikel.

I found an awesome poem when I was making my 2011 calendar on Heritage Makers.

Grown don't mean nothing to a mother. 
A child is a child. 
They get bigger, older, but grown? 
What's that suppose to mean? 
In my heart it don't mean a thing.

~ Toni Morrison

11/5: I am thankful for "goodly" parents, especially my mom.

I am grateful for both my parents, but my mom is still alive & I am grateful for that. She was confused today, sigh. "Goodly" parents, of course, is from 1 Nephi 1:1. Goodly is cross-referenced to Proverbs 22:1

A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches and loving favour rather than silver and gold.
