My mom Opal was a talker and she always had words of wisdom. She passed on in 2009 and this blog is my way of remembering what my mom said. 

I can remember her telling me to be me, not who others wanted me to be.

As you can see from the photo above, she never let anyone tell her what to do and she was bright and full of life. Me? I was a tomboy who didn't want to stand out.

Some of what she told me was silly, some crazy and of course there were serious talks. 
I think this will be fun.

Toodles.
