I started this post almost a month ago! Today the little baby is a month old and I can't express how much joy her presence has brought me in this month and I look forward to every one of her upcoming milestones. I have always looked at motherhood as a blessing even a calling b/c what we do and say to these little ones will shape who they are and what they become in the future. So for me I can see that God has a purpose in choosing me to be a vessel that shapes a small part of the future (if that makes sense since I'm writing on about 3 hours of sleep.lol.). I've always wanted to do something huge in this lifetime and even though that looked different to me when I was younger, I can see and appreciate the significance of being a parent especially a mom. Sometimes I find myself just staring at the little baby amazed by her beauty, her little hands and feet, her dependence on me, etc. But mostly I'm just grateful that she's mine! I think it's true what they say, that you've never known love on this earth until you've become a mom. As I type that I can't help but think about God's love for us and to think that my love for my kids could never touch his love for us makes me want to do a praise dance! So this post is just a "thank you" to God! For his blessings, for new life, for his love, & most importantly for Jesus!
