"I feel overwhelmed lately. It’s the kind of overwhelmed that makes me want to sit and do nothing because I have no idea where to even start. It’s the kind of overwhelmed that makes the tears sting my eyes because I feel like such a failure in multiple areas of my life right now."

That’s when I saw the toy my child had placed in the baggage area. And that’s when she chose to question me, “What’s the problem, mom?”

Choose to bless your children with words straight from the Bible. Abundantly…

"As we sat in line, I notice kids in letterman jackets with their class rings. And I notice Zeke’s stained hands. I began to tear up."

"All was quiet. Too quiet... All I could see was a pair of feet in the doorway. My heart started beating. Is she even alive..."

"He has not been in the sun, he was simply outdoors, so I put screen on him just in case."

"He’s looking into my soul by this point with those big, blue teary eyes..."

"I remember being worried that a 5-year age gap was too big... our first two children were only 20 months apart."
