Instilling hope is a precious talent of a good Mum, above and beyond all the other hard work she does. Your poem's beautiful nostalgia brings me to the center of this happy home, dearest Regina. Congratulations for your excellent win in Eve's contest.. ~Susan

Gina, what a lovely remembrance of your "mum" and the life lessons of service she taught you in the simple, humble work of her hands. Makes me think of a humble carpenter shop and the hands that created perfect wheels within the confines of a family and home! Congratulations dear friend on your win! May this season bless your home!
