PRAY FOR PEACE ON EARTH, SAYS JESUS

"To My Loving Children,
Please pray to me and your Heavenly Father for peace on earth. There is so much destruction, pain and suffering going on around the world today.  Your prayers are so powerful and when you invoke my name JESUS, I can come by your side and eliminate evil.  

Wars are being started throughout the world because of greed and power seeking individuals.  They wish to control others and make them into slaves.  I am here with you during these hardships.  Pray, pray and pray that goodness prevails.  The world is turning upside down and many innocent people are being harmed and killed.  There will be more storms before peace is erected on earth again.  The fight between good and evil continues to exist.  People are not looking to God for glory, but rather trying to make themselves into Kings.  

When you pray, evil has less power on earth and Satan can not rule.  Help me to turn hearts into goodness.  Pray for your brothers and sisters on earth.  I am here watching and act accordingly.  My wish tonight is for my children to unite in prayer with love in their hearts for peace and justice.  
I send out my special Blessings to you.
Jesus Christ"

HOW DO YOU KNOW IF YOU ARE A GOOD MOTHER?

As a Mother, you sometimes may wonder, what your child thinks of you.  What are they really thinking inside that precious heart and mind of theirs?  Well, on my birthday, I received a beautiful text from my son John Frangeskos, away studying at the University at Albany at 1:04am.  He was the first one to wish me Happy Birthday.   I wish to share with you his text.  It is precious and priceless.  

"Hi Mom, I know it's late but I just wanted to wish you a Happy Birthday.  You may not realize it but you are one of my greatest role models in life, I adore you and couldn't even imagine being raised by someone else.  18 years ago you took on the job of raising triplets and you have done a great job guiding me into the right direction academically and mentally, I love you so much and you have the greatest job in the world.  I love you so much and I can't even describe how beautiful, talented, smart, funny, personable person you are.  I feel like I took after you and inherited all of your traits.  I will always be your "Bird" and I will always be your son.   I don't care even in 30 years, I promise to keep having our little "Moes" dates even if I'm super busy.  I hope you realize that you don't have to have a job to make me proud of you, because ever since I was born, you have given up everything in your life to make the triplets better and raising 3 successful triplets is ten times harder than any job.  I want you to know that I will always love my Mother and you are my idol who I will always look up to in life, love my "Mama Lombardi."

Love always,
Bird

God is great.  He Blessed me with 3 loving, caring, kind children.  I received 2 other texts from my Julia and Michael...sweet, short and to the point.  They love me Super Big too!

Give everything to your children, not necessarily material things...but love them to the greatest capacity you have.  If they receive great love from you, they will learn how to love others.  You are their teacher and role model.  Children are the greatest gifts from God.  

Thanks for reading.
