One of Moms favorite poems: I MADE IT HOME I just wanted to let you know I made it home. Everything is so pretty here, so white, so fresh, so new. I wish that you could close your eyes so could see it too. God is taking care of me….I’m in the shelter of His hands. Here there is no crying, and I’ll never hurt again. Here it is so peaceful, when all the angels sing. I really have to go now…I’ve got to try my wings. P.S. I’ll be the first face you see when you get here.
