Southern Hospitality

My grandmother is the definition of a "steel magnolia" to me a steel magnolia is a lady who is sweet, gentle and kind.. yet strong and resilient all at the same time. A steel magnolia's beauty comes from within which serves to enhance her physical appearance. This combination in a woman makes her one of God's most lovely and endearing creatures on earth. My grandmother is one of the strongest women i know. She has stayed loyal and loved the love of her life for 50 years, always taking care of him and always by his side no matter what. She takes care of her mother, and her brother, letting them both live with her in their time of need. My grandmother is the strongest woman i know. Not once have i ever seen her let out and cry. She is the one person you can count on in a bad situation, she is the person you can lean on and she will lift you back up. I'm proud to say that Beulah Phillips is my grandmother, i see alot of her in myself. I wish to one day have the courage and the strength that my grandmother shows, to be as loyal as she is to the ones she loves, and to be willing to help and give my all to my family.
