“The greatest gift
our parents ever gave us
was each other.”— Unknown
Porte Ponderings:
Some days it feels like we are like baby wood ducks. We hatched and our parents led us to the water where we were left to sink or swim.
I’ve been very lucky. I have 3 sisters that I remain close to. There are some who have placed money between each other and mis-placed loyalties. I continue to celebrate the lives of my sisters and being close with them.
