The Matriarch

the matriarch is the oldest female head of a family and I'm so elated that God has preserved this position for me I've lived a life that has been almost four scores and I've seen what my people have had to endure as I stand here today I'm a living testimony of the goodness the Lord Our God has given to me now surrounded by several generations of my loving descents as the matriarch for me this moment is heaven-sent to my sons, my daughters, my grands, my cousins and all of my kin I'm so joyful that I'm able to have this reunion with you once again may the Lord continue to grant us grace and bless each and everyone and I pray that I'll see you all next year for my living is not done

It seems to me that from your words, you have earned this place of honor! A fortunate family to have you as an example! :)
