Mothers Day

Posted by Ian in Uncategorized on May 14th, 2006

I’ve said happy Mothers Day to my mum, and my kids have said it to their mum, and we served up a nice breakfast for her, and gave her a couple of nice little gifts.

How about this story as pretty inspiring for Mothers Day?  Cindy Miceli is a single mother with 10 children.  She needed a house for them, so went to TAFE to do residential building studies, and learnt how to build it herself.  Judging from the picture, it looks like she’s done a pretty decent job.

So many kids: Cindy Miceli knew what to do . . . go to TAFE. From<br />left to right, back, are Kaitlin and Tiffany and, front, Zachary,<br />Emma, Cindy, Madison and Joshua” align=”middle” height=”294″ width=”470″ /></p>
<div align=I love stories about people who’ve gotten off their backsides and done something positive to help themselves to improve their own life.  Too many, I think, find it easier to sit around whinging about how tough things are and wait to be gifted everything.
