How lovely that one of the things you can take from your divorce is that you truly were impacted positively by your MIL.<br /><br />I love the anecdote about the flowers.

I have to be honest, I was just pushing myself to write, and it took a lot to post this one...knowing it wasn't what it should be. I would give myself the very same concrit you did. I went back to work teaching a few weeks ago, and the writing has come to an abrupt stop. I need people just like you pushing me, improving me and helping me to get better...and to keep working at it! Thanks so much!!Writerly Wanna Behttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00034679656184476657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2898791543093077881.post-50952822147711143712011-08-30T20:07:05.203-04:002011-08-30T20:07:05.203-04:00@Yvonne

Way to follow your heart and try to grow your gift. You clearly have an "eye" for story. You did a good job here telling what was important to you about Nancy. An idea for engrossing your reader further in your subject is to bring them into it with you by telling just one scene that "sums up" your subjection. In this instance you could describe a day with Nancy or a couple of events with Nancy and we could see her from your eyes as if we were in the scene. Look at Tiaras and Trucks post for today for a great example of how to do that. You will be able to SHOW us all of the great stuff you just TOLD us about Nancy. Please keep up the great writing. You're really doing good work.Amy a/k/a HonestConvoGalhttp://www.honestconvo.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2898791543093077881.post-88014808739759297082011-08-30T12:08:01.471-04:002011-08-30T12:08:01.471-04:00What a beautiful story!

I never really got to know my MIL as she died shortly after we married.<br /><br />I love this paragraph: "It is that spiritual side that impacted my world more than any other. She wasn't perfect, she made mistakes, she made poor choices....but she always showed her love of God, and when she needed forgiveness for those poor choices she was open and honest about it."<br /><br />What a blessing to have that modeled for you!Melaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01830964784682748651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2898791543093077881.post-5531157030680706272011-08-30T10:15:49.100-04:002011-08-30T10:15:49.100-04:00Very very sweet!
