What kind of legacy will we leave? Has God's purpose for us been fulfilled?
Pondering those questions, I realized most of my life's experiences have been from the perspective of a birth mother of six, an adoptive mother of one (plus a few extras along the way), a mother in law, a wife, a friend and now a grandmother. There are so many things in the past I wish I could have done differently. The most incredible lessons I have learned have come from the deepest pains.
Hopefully this blog will encourage others and be a platform for you to share what you've learned. In the real world we don't always have to hold our heads high...it's ok to bow to the Father and let him be the one to lift our chins in love.
I will have a "Recommended Reading Categories" for parenting and marriage. So send your suggestions. Also, a place for products which have made your life easier! (Like the bumpo picture on the sidebar.)
The big journey the Lord has placed in front of me for this site currently is A Marriage Alliance. Being an encourager to younger couples who are treading off where we have trod. Pray each day for the family in America. Pray for protection and vibrancy for those families who are healthy; hope, strength and perseverance to survive for those who are hurting; and refreshment and restoration for those which have been blown apart. Whatever category you find yourself in today, remember God's mercies are new every morning!
