In her fourth decade of life, after having never written anything other than grocery lists, checks or letters to friends, Mamie Marie Willis discovered she was a poet-who-didn't-know-it. In The Way God Made Me, Willis shares the wisdom of a married mother of six doing the best she can while struggling to keep up with the changing times. Her delight in the everyday will charm readers as they revel in her reverence for pennies, yard sales and modern-day inventions only someone of her generation could be grateful for. Now in her eighties, Willis invites us to spend time with her extended family, sharing both their joy and their heartbreak. Her praises to God reveal a woman secure in the knowing she need never sing the blues. The Way God Made Me will make you laugh, it will make you cry, and it will remind you to give thanks for the everyday every day.
