There’s no special “happy children’s day” today…just a very grateful mom who stayed up late reflecting on my life. I was thinking of how much I prayed for my kids throughout the years. I was thinking about how I was told I couldn’t have children and how hurt and betrayed I felt by my Dad in heaven. How I rebelled and made bad decisions because I was depressed.
I have always told my kids that we haven’t given them a good example of marriage – I tell them not to make the mistakes we’ve made.
They had a great upbringing and were shown so much love. But my kids have been through a lot and have seen a lot, heard a lot of turmoil when it came to their parents and marriage. With all they’ve seen in us, they could have easily gone a different path. They could have been angry with God and rebelled. But in their darkest days, they have never forgotten where the answer lies. They have made their own mistakes and have their own flaws – but I am so grateful that they have always come back to God. Nothing in my life makes me happier than seeing all 4 of them serving Jesus.
We may not always have it all together – but together we have it all… 🌎 ♥️💙💙💙🙏🏼
