MY MOTHERS HANDWRITING

2 Timothy 3:16 states, “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness”.

May 11, 2025 is Mother’s Day. One very precious (and preserved) memory of my mother was her skill in hand-writing. Her skill of “penmanship” (or penwomanship), was exemplary. To view a sample of her writing was to experience a work of art.

Mom graduated high school about 1930. She lied about her age to the point, I cannot be really sure of her birth date or graduation year. I found her birth date in an old family Bible while visiting a relative, and asked her of its validity. Obviously very sensitive concerning her age, this quiet, reserved little lady uttered words I had no idea she even knew.
