These Four
Then
there were four.
Honestly,
most days it still feels very surreal that they are ours.
Almost
unbelievable that I get to be the momma of four little ones {not to mention also to one beautiful 22 year old and step momma to another}.
I am
blessed to care for them everyday of my life.
to pour
into their little beings.
to
protect them. speak truth to them.
guide
their hearts & minds.
pray over
each one.
snuggle
up to, laugh with, and enjoy
the
truth,
they
challenge me beyond what I ever thought to be capable of.
(my 4 year old in particular)
they push
me to be kinder, more gentle, and to understand loving
unconditionally.
especially
when the circles under my eyes are very dark, my hair hasn't been washed in
nearly a week, and I would do just about anything for a solid 5 minutes alone
with my thoughts.
we have a
new normal now. I do not seem to ever have enough sleep. My home is ALWAYS a disaster. Most meals are barely editable. And I feel like I am always on the go. As a mom the
opportunity to be kind to them, to be what they need {and they each need four very different things from me} even when I'm exhausted arises nearly every day. I'm so
thankful the Lord pours into me grace and kindness on a regular basis because
without that life with littles would be very hard.
Truly these little people bring me much joy & encouragement.
They bring true happiness to my heart when the enemy tries desperately to steal my joy.
These little ones put smiles on my face when life is a bit uncertain
The Lord is so faithful. Each one of my children are specific reminders of who God is to me.
I'm so thankful for each of their lives.
In the moments that I'm feeling really tired, or theres potential to feel overwhelmed I simply remember how blessed I am by them. I've prayed so hard for their lives, health, and they are such a joy! I really just want to kiss their sweet baby cheeks, and snuggle up with them all the time. I really am enjoying being a momma to these four little angels.
