Description
The bond between a mother and daughter begins in the womb, as the mother and her child develop an eternal love from pregnancy into adulthood.
Dr. Sheila Williams remembers her childhood and had a different relationship with her mother, Mattie Williams. Childhood secrets and clinical depression, led Mattie to speak very little and feel as though she didn’t measure up to others, or as a mother.
In her new autobiography, My Mother’s Keeper, Sheila recalls the woman of God that her mother was, revealed in several poignant moments during her life.
She was quiet, even at times she was quiet at home with her own family. As a young child, I didn’t understand her silence, but as I got older…..I came to know….her looks, her stares, her quietness, and her silence, all had meaning.
Mattie was later diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, prompting Sheila to put her life on hold to become her mother’s primary caregiver. These experiences taught Sheila perseverance, compassion and how to rely on God no matter what. Ultimately, she learned how to be a Proverbs 31 woman from the woman who taught her to love despite the obstacles.
‘A delicate flower that blossomed in season, she [Mattie] graciously wilted until her time was no more. I am blessed to be the seed of her of existence.’
