mommy love

Never would I have imagine being 26 and having TWO children. I am thankful most for God's will and sovereignty over my life. I am grateful for the opportunity to be a mother at the exact time He saw best. Not me, Him. What a gift. 

While I understand having children truly is a gift from the Lord, there are really some days I struggle so very much. I believe the lie that I am not adequate enough. That we should be like some other family. That my children would be happier if they had SOMETHING else. 

God is being faithful in showing me what it means to sacrifice in loving my children. He is consistently showing me that their souls are what matter, not how good I am at being their mother and taking care of them. That pointing them to Jesus in all things is eternally rewarding. All the other stuff will rot and burn up one day. Their souls will live forever and that's why He has called me to be Grey and Tucker's mother. 

Regardless of the struggle, I would not want to be anywhere else every single day!
