My dear, sweet mother-in-law in Somalia

Just sharing one of my favorite quotes today. I want to thank the many women in my life who embody this: my mother, my daughters, my sisters, my aunts and cousins, my dear friends, and very special readers. I would not be who I am today without you. Thank you for your quiet and loving example!

“The world has enough women who are tough; we need women who are tender. There are enough women who are coarse; we need women who are kind. There are enough women who are rude; we need women who are refined. We have enough women of fame and fortune; we need more women of faith. We have enough greed; we need more goodness. We have enough vanity; we need more virtue. We have enough popularity; we need more purity.” Margaret Nadauld
