Wanda's Story
Life
My Spouse,"Skip", was in the US Navy stationed in Long Beach, and I was working as a secretary in Los Angeles. We met through friends, and have been married since Oct 1962.
We have 3 children - 1 daughter (3 grandchildren) who lives in St. Joseph, MI, and 2 sons, one lives nearby, Buchanan, MI, and the other lives in Sweeny, TX (both with 3 children each, one of whom has 3 miracle children, his wife having been told she would never be able to bear children, thus the doc has dubbed these children "true miracles"). We also helped raise 2 of my nephews and I consider them my boys too. One is in Iraq working as a contractor, and the other lives in Hot Springs, AR.
I have been an elected official (presently Township Trustee, formerly Township Clerk)of our local govt for 7 years with 3.5 years of my term remaining, and am presently on the local Planning Commission as well. My husband and I are retired but remain active and busy. My hubby after driving truck for 31 years, and myself after many years as Executive Secretary, Executive Assistant; however, the Township ...Expand for more
Clerk's job took far too much of my time, thus my reason for not seeking reelection to that position, instead ran for Trustee and was elected.
I love to write inspirational short stories and poetry. In addition, My mother came to live with us about 1.5 years ago, as she had been diagnosed with Alzheimers and could no longer live alone. It is a terrible disease, which is robbing her of every aspect of her being. She is now only the shell of my dear mother. It is a 24/7 job, and I am not sure how long I will be able to continue, but am praying that God will answer my prayer and give me strength to endure. My health has begun to deteriorate due to the undue stress and heartache I suffer for her.
My 9 grandchildren are truly the lights of my earthly life; and my Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ, is my ever-present companion and guide in all of life's adventures and travails. I couldn't have gotten this far had it not been for finding him when I did many years ago at the lowest point in my unworthy life. His Grace is more than sufficient!! God bless you and yours.
