I can hardly believe it. My mother, Wilma Norris Knight, is 99 years old this week, on May 4. She was born in 1921. What's even more remarkable is that she is so full of life that she might make it another 99 years!

With my mom's birthday at one end of this week and Mother's Day at the other, I am overwhelmed with gratitude to God for three women's influence in my life. I wouldn't be the man I am without them. They are my Granny Scarberry (my mom's mom), my wife, Gena, and of course my praying mom.
