My Mom, My Hero
My unsung hero is without a doubt my Mother, Diane. My Mom didn’t want children initially, and as someone who struggles with the same doubt, I can relate to her hesitation. She eventually gave in, giving her biological clock the credit for bequeathing the throne of a childless life. But I think deeper than her body’s own timeclock was God’s timing and will for her. I believe my Mom was always meant to be a Mother but she fought her own fear, desires and temptation to remain free from the responsibilities of raising kids (as I do). She was a teacher, and she became my teacher both in the classroom and as my mother, so I know God gifted her dearly with the ability to teach, mentor and of course mother.
