“We must not drift away from humble works,
because these are the works nobody will do.
It is never too small.
We are so small we look at things in a small way.
But God almighty sees everything great.
Therefore, if you just go and sit and listen,
go visit somebody, or bring somebody a flower
–small things, wash clothes for somebody,
or clean the house, very humble work.
That is where you and I must be.
For there are many people who can do big things.
But there are very few who will do the small things.”
~Mother Teresa

This quote reminds me of my mother.
She was continually doing the small great things of life.
On a bit of a different note,
Look how a woman did
On a bit of a different note,
Look how a woman did
I especially love how she got her children involved.

That is wonderful. When it comes down to it, it is the small things that make the difference.
I love Mother Teresa quotes. She's my hero. And I loved the acts of kindness. It sounded like a really fun day for her.... and like she said, it did her heart good to see her kids enjoy being kind.

Mother Teresa was an amazing woman.
