A Legacy Of Love: Spirited Storyteller Honoring Mom's Memory By Publishing 12 Children's Books In 12 Months
A mother's love is the warmth that cradled us first, the voice that assured us we were loved even when the world felt cold, and the quiet confidence that knew we could fly, even before we had wings. And even when life carries her away, her love lives on, carrying us back home, no matter how far we roam.
When we carry our mother's spirit in all we do and face life's difficulties with the same fierce love she showed us, we become a living testament to her beautiful legacy.
