As October 13th, my mom's birthday, approaches she has been heavy in my thoughts and sweet in my memory.
17 months ago I held her hand as this beautiful soul walked into the arms of her Savior. While I deeply believe her work on earth may well have been done, it just seems to me there are still too many lives that her legacy needs to touch.
When I began creating Unto All Generations it came from a sense of urgency to tell my children their story. I wanted them to read of their grandmother's love for them, others, and, Jesus.
Over the last few months I have felt the Lord calling me to use Unto All Generations and Scrapbooker's Bubble Bath as part of my mom's legacy. She is not the only woman that had an amazing story to tell, yet will never get the chance to tell it. Too many others have left this earth without leaving love notes for their loved ones to read.
In Memory of my mom and In Honor of her life, I have decided to make the Unto All Generations Series available for free to all! I'm praying to encourage daughters to document their moms' words, and moms to record their dreams for their children, and grandmothers to share their love for their grandchildren. If I can help more tell the story of His amazing love in their albums, lives will be changed for eternity. The legacy of my mom's short life will live on in the deeper passion that I now have in encouraging others to leave their legacy through their words and scrapbooks.
Happy Birthday to my beautiful mom ~ thank you for leaving a legacy Unto All Generations!
What a beautiful memorial to your mother! May the many responses and thank you's be a blessing to you as you remember her at her birthday.
