Susan Lafferty“There’s a song in the air. There’s a star in the sky.”
It was always my favorite carol as a kid. At Christmas.
Years later. In a country with only a small percentage of believers. I was walking through a department store one day and suddenly stopped. Listened.
Christmas music was in the air. Playing over the sound system. Lyrics and all.
“…O come let us adore Him, Christ the Lord!”
One of the strongest, most determined women I know. And funny. My mother.
A devoted follower of Christ. And gifted teacher. Mom and grandmother (Nani).
Countless are the ways her life impacts mine. And every time I try to put it down on paper, I fall short of words.
But we’re celebrating her 90th birthday this week.
So, here goes. Some personal thoughts and memories.
O give thanks to the Lord, Mom. Great things He has done!
