Strong Women

2008.02.12
.This iron woman represents the last original object in my deceased in-laws home.
There was a fire in 1993, then Katrina(New Orleans) in 2005. I am proud to own this strong, proud
woman

Women should be tough, tender, laugh as much as possible
and live long lives.
Maya Angelou

msrolltide I think she is a nurse! I want that. I like that she is faceless. That means that each of us can envision ourselves as this strong woman who has perservered through trials and still stands strong.
