Another member offered to hold him, explaining that sometimes when a person who is less tense holds a crying baby, he settles down. Needless to say, as soon as she held him, he stopped crying. Janet said, 'That was the first of the many things that I learned from my homemaker ladies along the way, not just about raising children, but cooking and praying and giving of your time to someone else. These ladies have enriched my life greatly and I will never forget the fun we have together."
