Tracey was a beautiful baby. This is Jimmy (My late-husband) and father of my children Taking a photo of her doll. Rather Vain! Tracey at 8 years. In Florida Tracey Modelling at 16 The New Mommy! This is Tracey, Sean and Rayray in Church PATIENCE "Nature offers us an infinite variety of plants that fascinate and delight us. We know that it would be ludicrous for us to pass judgment on them. We don't nag at them to reveal a new bud or leaf when we think they should. Neither do we compare them with other plants in the same garden that we feel are doing so much better. We allow them to do what is natural for them, to grow and flower at their own pace. It seems logical that the people we love should be offered the same consideration, especially since we cannot be fully aware of the struggles with which they are dealing. Even with the best of intentions, our impatience for them to "grow up" and "be sensible." implies that it's a simple matter. The assumption is that they can and should change at our behest. I have saved some of my healthiest plants because I learned a long time agothat if I want them to thrive I simply have to allow them to live according to their own nature. Countless times I've given up on some, after having waited patiently for them to respond to my careful nurturing, only to find that one day when they, not I, were quite ready, they unfolded before my eyes. They were simply awaiting their time. Sometimes our best service to those we love is to simply stand by, be silent, be patient, be hopeful, be understanding, and wait!" Leo Buscaglia. ALL THE STANDING BY, SILENCE, PATIENCE, HOPEFULNESS, UNDERSTANDING AND WAITING - HAS PAID OFF WONDERFULLY! TRACEY HAS BLOOMED INTO A WONDERFUL, CARING, COMPASSIONATE, KIND, LOVING, RESPONSIBLE WOMAN AND MOTHER! I AM SO VERY PROUD OF YOU, TRACE! Love always.
