Dear Grandma,
It has been six years since I last spoke to you.  I have felt your influence in my life so many times.  There are nights when I wake up from a dream about you and your home and I feel you near me.  I feel grandpa too.  I know your spirits have moved on to that place where we go until the end.  I look forward to embracing you once more.  But I must stay here on earth for now.  I am doing a very important work.  You held three of my five babies.  You know what work I am engaged in day in and day out.  It is because of you that I love this calling of motherhood.  You taught me to embrace it.  You showed me how to mother by your example.  Thank you.  There is no greater work on earth and in the eternities.  When I found out I was pregnant with number five I wondered how I could love and care for one more.  One day in quiet refelection I recieved my answer and my heart was filled with love.  This is what I am designed to do.  My heart and sould IS big enough to love these children.  I can be endowed with power from on high if I allow it.  I am starting this blog as a way to express things that I am learning and feeling.  I called it "A return to home" because I feel that the answer to many of the problems in the world today could be solved if mothers return home.  If we make home and families of utmost importance and we do this with the help of God then we will be better off in this world.  So, here I go.  Wish me luck and continue to teach me.  I know I need it.  I love you.
Your granddaughter,
Rebecca
