Attributes Most Admired
admire my first grade teacher, Mrs. Milton
Peebles, who taught me patience, perseverance,
compassion, and many lessons in life. I admire my
mother who is the most honest person I know. I admire
her courage in raising me after my father died when I
was only 6. I admire her perseverance and frugal ways.
She saved money for me to go to Harding with very

always made time for me and made me feel like a
princess. I admire my husband for his faithfulness,
patience, and good humor. I admire my son who is
organized, steadfast, and unaffected by peer pressure,
andmy daughter who is eager, bright, beautiful, and

I admire my Aunt Laquita who has suffered many
hard knocks, the death of her older daughter, who was
only five, the death of her husband when she was 29,
etc, but who always taught me to see the beauty and
loveliness of life in all situations. I lived with her when
I went to college. She would take me for a drive on a
rainy day to enjoy the beauty of.God's creation . At 77,
she is still full of life and adventure.
