Fifteen Days of Thankfulness

Today (actually every day) I am thankful that I am a stay at home mom!!! If you asked me when I was a child what I wanted to be when I grew up, I would have answered, "A mom." I am tremendously blessed to be doing what I always wanted to do...have children, nurse them, care for them, watch them take their first steps, teach them their first words, watch in amazement as they grow and explore. I have been there for all of it! Has every moment been blissful? NO!! Oh my goodness, sometimes I am so overwhelmed! But I know that God has given me this tremendous task and I need to rely on Him to make it through each day. I am grateful to my husband for going to work every day so that I can be here to cherish this time.
