by Shelia L. Johnson (Author)
I am both humbled and honored to write this epilogue for Shelia L. Johnson Peters' first book, 8 Kids and 2 Suitcases. What I can and will say is that I have been greatly touched, blessed, and led to salvation by the author who I simply call, mother. I believe you will be blessed by her testimony and encouraged by her story of strength and courage which triumphed over adversity and transported her to success. This book contains the raw, unfiltered account of the real life experiences of a battered and abused women, wife, and mother who persevered and persisted until she succeeded and made sure that all who was associated with her did the same. Exactly how is found between these pages and in her unshakable Love for God and Faith in Jesus Christ. Once you have read her story and the comments of the eight children with two suitcases who traveled the path with her I pray that you are encouraged. How can I say and know these things? I can say because I owe much of my accomplishments to Shelia L. Johnson Peters who nurtured and encouraged the best characteristics in me too. Like in the song, she saw the best in me and brought it out by her never give in attitude. Oh, and by the way, I am married to one of her eight children, Bernadette. She didn't quit. She didn't give up. She didn't stop. She didn't succumb. She stumbled, she fell, but she picked herself up and kept going until she persevered and succeeded pulling behind all who are associated with her. Shelia L. Johnson Peters has "True Grit" and a "Crown of Many Stars" and an unfinished story.
