When I think of you
I give glory to
God
I love you
Forever
My first teacher
Encourager

My first example of grace
Beauty
Tenderness
Artistic brilliance
I am grateful for you
Forever
You create home
Wherever you go
Bringing warmth
Wisdom
Love
Godly character
And nurturing care
To every corner you inhabit
I respect you
Forever
I live to make you happy
You are my heart
My mentor
My dearest friend
My mother
I love you
Forever
This poem is dedicated to my dear mother, Pauline Hutchinson who turned 80 on 9/9/20. I know my father is smiling down from heaven. He was her best friend, her loving husband, and father to her six children both adopted and biological. My mother is my dearest friend, a Proverbs 31 woman of God, my confidant, a caring person, a midwife, nurturer, chef, co-pilot, legendary, adventurer, artist, musician, and extraordinary Christ-follower!

You are carrying on the legacy, Katherine! -Marian Beaman September 12, 2020
Kathy, that poem brought tears to my eyes. Such truth and gratitude for an amazing mother and woman. I have fond memories of your mom and dad growing up in New York. That poem is beautiful and the picture depicts the true beauty of your parents love for one another. Your mom was a beautiful bride. Sweetheart inside and out. Give her a big hug and kiss for me please. -Stephanie Wilkinson September 12, 2020
Kat, Auntie Polly sure is awesome. She’s a mother figure to so many. I remember her cooking, singing, pool parties with you guys. I remember being with her and uncle Joe when he was in the hospital at Sloan Kettering, the same time as my dad. I remember our chats in his room. She’s an awesome woman. I pray she will have many more blessed, happy birthdays. Love, Carolyn -Carolyn Wiltshire September 12, 2020
