Aunt Louise


A Women has strengths that amaze men.
She can handle trouble and carry heavy burdens.
She holds happiness, love and opinions.
She smiles when she feels like screaming.
She sings when she feels like crying, cries when she's happy and laughs when she's afraid.
Her love is unconditional!
There's only one thing wrong with her:
She sometimes forgets what she is worth.......


This is for my Aunt Louise who was a beautiful woman.
A little girl who milked cows at five in the morning before school, picked cotton on the farm, lost her oldest brother at age twenty-one, lost her only son to cancer at age twenty-four, promised her father on his death bed she would take care of her mother and she did.
"Be pretty" is what she always said to me.
Her journey in life was a hard one, but she faced every challenge head on and made it through.
It was wonderful having her in my life.


I Wish You Love & Be Pretty ,
