I figured I'd better look at that dreaded alarm clock again. Oooopsies...I'm late! 21 quick minutes had passed since it broke the silence of the night! We jumped out of bed and started the day with alot of joy in my heart! Thank you, God, for little kiddos! They are just so special and I feel so honored to get to be a mommy! It's so great that God designed it for us to be, "Keepers at Home", "To love our Children", "To love our Husbands"....Titus 2:4-5
And when the going gets rough, like it can often get for all of us with many children....we still have so many things to be thankful for! We can remember all the little hands that help us each day, the little arms that are so ready to hug us, the little voices that always tell us that we are the best mommy or tell us that they love us and the little feet that go to do as we ask them to. (even if it is grudgingly at times) They aren't perfect but neither are their parents...so what can we expect???? We can be thankful that Christ died for ALL of us and rejoice in his love and his perfectness each day! Hope you are all having a blessed day....the clock tells me that I need to quit my musings once again and get back to school:) The kids' break is over...so mine is too! Love You, Mona
These pictures aren't actually anything to do with this post...but I thought I would add a few anyways.
We had our Day 100 school party a few weeks ago. Here they had counted out 100 of a few different things...
Very sweet post...and great reminder! Thanks :)
ReplyDeleteWhat an inspiring post! I love that it doesn't end with our children but goes on to grandbabies, mine just brings me so much joy my heart is full to bursting when she is around!
ReplyDeleteDay 100 a few weeks ago?? I guess we're behind-I think we're coming up on day 100 in just a day or two now....
ReplyDeleteNot behind....we just started early again to try to be done in May. We plan to go on a vacation then.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the joy-filled post, Mona! Such sweet 'joy-fillers' we have been blessed with. Shayne has her 100th. day of school tomorrow. Clara
ReplyDeleteI.....miss.....these.....kids!!!! Aweee they are getting SO big! Give them giant hugs from Tsasa, ok??? =D
ReplyDeleteTaj, even though they have had tons of "Best" babysitters since, they still proclaim Tsasa was the best babysitter ever....as recently as last week! I'm sure you are making a good mommy!
