I'm truly honored if it could be comforting in some small way. Motherhood matters so much, because we are shaping eternal souls. But in the end, there is much that doesn't matter...which clears the way for the things that do! Thank you so much for taking time to read this and to reply. Should it be God's will for you to become a mom someday, I believe you will give your children everything that matters most.

It hits me when you say sometimes you didn't know what to pray for your children,....that your children know that you love them...wow that's an encouragement to me!!Not relentinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09012259246056843206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9113701246699691315.post-80601573743826480322018-09-09T16:40:25.792-04:002018-09-09T16:40:25.792-04:00Lisa, my friend, that is the BEST COMMENT I've...Lisa, my friend, that is the BEST COMMENT I've ever gotten.

Thank God--truly!--for them! And thank you as always for your encouragement here, as a mom who's at a similar mile marker on the mom road as I am. I loved the journey when my girls were younger, but I'm thankful to be at this point now (most of the time!). Blessings to you...I'm headed over to read your "introvert at the wedding" post RIGHT NOW!! :)<br />Elizabeth Spencerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14323422138353699587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9113701246699691315.post-83888214908881746772018-09-07T08:20:34.037-04:002018-09-07T08:20:34.037-04:00Oh my goodness, my husband sounds just like yours ...Oh my goodness, my husband sounds just like yours ~ the rock that steadies me! ;) How thankful I am for his common sense and good judgment!!<br /><br />Love the focus in this post on what really matters in our mothering. It's so much clearer on this end of parenting than it was when I was neck-deep in those early days. Thanks for sharing this wisdom with all of us!!Traceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03901952910404523187noreply@blogger.com
