Lit Circle

So I wasn't able to share my quote when we had the Lit Circle the other day. My quote came from Book Five Exodus on page 444 where Adah had called Orleanna to ask her the one question that kept replaying in her mind. She finally asked Orleanna why she had chosen her that day at the Kwenge River. Orleanna replied "after Ruth May you were my youngest, Adah. When push comes to shove, a mother takes care of her children from the bottom up." When I thought about this quote, I thought about my future and having to choose between my children. Even though Orleanna was a shadow to Nathon, I can see how strong she is and how her children are the world to her.
