I cannot believe it that I just read my name and my answer on OPRAH MAGAZINE just now!!! SOL again!
 |
| Yes, you read it right THE MAGAZINE! :-) |
You know, I have to be honest, I tried getting a home make-over with Nate thru writing thru the OPRAH Show before ( Who wouldn't want that?!), no luck there, and just recently, I answered this question on her magazine and submitted it online, and I am happy and proud to say I got on the short list!
This was the question I answered...
 |
| The Article |
And this was my answer...
 |
| Do you see my name up there? |
I thought I was misreading the name, but then I screamed and found out it was me and it was the answer I submitted a couple of months back!
Here is my answer...
And this is so true.
I love you mom!
Ironic though, when I tried calling her tonight, she did not pick-up... :-) Oh well, I'll talk to her tomorrow!!!!
Thank you to the staff at OPRAH Magazine!
Have a Blessed day!!!!

Thanks a bunch Alma!!! Please show it to Gwen and the rest of the gang if you have a copy or even just online. I think my answer hit home with a lot of people since our mothers are the most reliable people we know! :-)
DeleteHi! Just happened to find your site through the comment you made on Kate's site (Centsational Girl), and thought I would check out your site. Wow, so cool you got your response included in Oprah's mag! And what a great relationship you have with your mom. Definitely something to be cherished :)
