Strand of Pearls

This devotional category is dedicated to my daughters: Hannah and Lilly Grace.

My husband Andy and I have been married 27 years. He gave me a strand of beautiful pearls when my youngest daughter was 6 months old on Mother’s Day.

In this new chapter of Empty Nesting, I am thankful to see that my daughters are filled with grace and joy. I, too, have given them a pearl to form a strand of faith first, then love, strength, compassion, contentment, laughter and the gift of being a loyal friend.
