Well, today I'm tired but thankful. I'm thankful that God chose me to be a Mom!
It's not always an easy job, it has moments of heart break and times when there's nothing you can do but trust God with this little life He put in your hands. There are definite moments of frustration where you are lacking in sleep and don't want to explain "why" and this seemingly small individual has such a huge will of his own and you just want to steer him in the right direction without conflict or bargaining.
I've never known such joy, such peace, such lightheartedness, and confidence mixed in with moments of inadequacy and heartache. It's like a constant roller coaster of emotions and really I know there's so much more to come. I want to hold onto so many moments that seem to slip by so fast, but in the same breath I can't wait to see what will happen next.
Such a journey...so blessed to experience it... Thank-you!!

This made me tear up. You put it into words so well. Having a kid just wakes up part of us we didn't even know existed!
ReplyDeleteIt's crazy eh?? I know we don't see each other often, but I'm glad we can share our motherhood stories, it's great our kids are the same age. :)
