Mom: The Best Job in the World!

Yes, I am finally back!  I haven't posted in a while as life has been really crazy!  What a better day to get back to posting than Mother's Day! 

My days are long, busy, and never-ending.  I am not paid in financial rewards.  I will never have a retirement plan, get bonuses, or any days off.  I don't know what it means to have a lunch break, to go to the bathroom by myself, or even have an adult conversation that isn't interrupted with questions, complaining, or crying.  Most of my days are spent in the kitchen or on the living room floor.  I still have "staff meetings" though mine usually occur daily and are needed to talk about appropriate behavior to one another.  I am a teacher, a referee, chef, maid, chauffer, karate instructor, official "underdog giver," professional story teller . . . I am a mother.  I am a wife.  I am so very blessed! 

Thank you God for the blessing of a husband who loves his family more than himself and who isn't afraid to do whatever it takes to do the very best for his family.  Thank you God for the blessing of three children whose smiles light our days, whose hugs bring tears to our eyes, and whose kisses let us feel Your enduring love.


On this Mother's Day, I feel so loved, so appreciated, and so very blessed.
