"All that I am, or hope to be, I owe to my angel mother"
~ Abraham Lincoln ~
This beautiful treasure was a Mother's Day gift from my parents to my grandmother, Susie Johnson. It was given to her in the early 1970's. After Granny passed away, Mom regained possession of it and kept it on display, usually in her bedroom. I had always told Mom that if something ever happened to her, I wanted the statue. I was granted my wish. I don't know why I was always fond of this piece. Maybe because it reminds me of the tenderness between a mother and her young children and the bond between them. I now have this nearly 40 year old statue displayed in my bedroom.
