We have an Angel in our midst
When I think that one of my friends just lost her mother this week, this is even more precious…it’s from my sis talking about my own mom.

Yesterday I took Mom to get her drivers license renewed. I was a little early picking her up she got a little fussy about that. LOL She looked of course really beautiful wearing blue, with her silver hair. We hopped into her car, she drove, this made me a little nervous but it was like riding in the car with mom 20 yrs ago, somewhat we did arrive safely. There was a front row parking spot right next to the door for handicapped. We walked in and as we started heading towards the back of the line a nice lady came up and told mom she didn't have to walk clear around and opened a section for her to cross. We didn't wait long and it was her turn to sign in and get her number. There was a young lady with her little girl waiting for something in front of us. The little girl couldn't have been more than two. Very tiny still wearing a diaper. She was memorized by mom and keep staring at her, she started whispering in her mothers ear. Her mother couldn't understand her and asked her to repeat it again. I thought she was going to say she is a grandma. Her mother looked at me very strangely as if she was going to cry and said "she says she's an Angel". I told the mother that she truly is, she use to be an OB nurse and she saved a lot of babies lives. Tears welled up in her eyes and she just shook her head looking at her little girl. We then went and sat down, I was told I couldn't go up to the counter with her, I am not sure what she told the ladies there but I watched as she would walk towards both counters and the look on peoples faces as she would come towards them. All smiling. She was standing up straight with her head held high proud to have driven there. Thinking about bringing her own mother to the drivers licensed place for the last time. The more I told the story to some of my friends the more I thought about how much she has been an Angel in our lives. We have been blessed with her. Even though she scared the he#@ out of me yesterday when she drove to the station, it wasn't so bad coming back. She did say that she should pay attention to the signs. LOL
(If you know my mom, I wouldn’t tell her she scared the he#@ out of my sis driving to get her license renewed. Mom turned 75 in May…She is an amazing woman! I also consider her an angel.)
