I read this quote the other day...
It really hit home for me.
My life has been way less then simple.
I am definitely not comparing myself to anyone else, I know that each person has their own story.
Bringing home those brand new babies.
Each time a new life is given to you, to hold in your arms--you are so over come with love, joy & a sense of fulfillment.
Little did I know, as I watching my precious babies grow--they were sent to me for a purpose.
Over the years
you run around, making dinners, school lunches, fixing boo-boos, taking care of them when their sick, resolving arguments, cheering them on, being told "your the meanest mom", getting big hugs for no reason, having a "who loves who the most" contest & listening to their laughter.
This never did prepare me for the answer of "why?" I had been blessed with my wonderful children.
God had a plan, he knew exactly what the "Plan" was!
Was it obvious at first? No, I would say not.
I had a feeling inside that what I was trying so hard to cling to something--anything, to fix what I thought was broken. I spent a lot of time praying.
Coming to the reality now that my life, our life, is coming to an abrupt end, but also a new beginning with the divorce. This has truly enlightened me, that my children--especially my daughters were the ones that were actually sent to
SAVE me.
Oh, I definitely believe that God had the largest part in it--but working through my children, I was finally given the faith in myself.
Seeing that so much more clearly now,
I have a full heart,
full of love, pride & blessings
knowing now that
my children were sent
to me
to be my Heroes---to rescue me!
