While I had a wonder Mom and a Christian home my wife is another story.
Her Mom and Dad would fight, scream, throw things at each other while the kids sat in dark rooms scared out of their minds.
After their divorce, my wife as a 12 year old stayed a while with her Dad and brothers, but that didn't work out and her older sister that had married early to get out of the home came and got her.
For the next few years she was shifted between her sister and her mother.
Her salvation came when her sister attended a little home mission Apostolic church and my wife was baptized in Jesus Name and received the Holy Ghost".
After we married and our first daughter was born Sis. Old Paths told me that "everything I lacked and wanted in a mother I am going to give my child.
Over 40 years later tonight I am babysitting while my oldest and youngest daughter attend a Mothers and Daughters banquet to honor theie Mom.
Tomorrow my other two daughter are coming and along with the two that are already here are gong to take their Mom out for lunch.
They said I could come along.
Not only have I had a wonderful Mother, but the Mother of my girls is an AWESOME Mom.
