I think it's a pretty neat deal, that God has entrusted four of his precious angels to...me. I am so unworthy. To give me a husband who puts the girls and I first, and daughters who are healthy and perfect is something I will never ever take for granted.
Right now, I am living the life I always dreamed of. Being a mom and a wife. In the end, this.. what I am doing right now will be my biggest accomplishment. I am SO proud of this feat I have been taking on!
Anything I might do on the side, whether it be singing solos in church or an exercise fanatic or attempting to be crafty, no one will really care. Because all that "side stuff" I might do doesn't make any difference in anybody's life but my own. And my life really isn't that important...it's my kids lives. It's what I am doing right now to make a difference in their lives. And I'm going to be there for them, and in their lives every second.
I spend every moment I can with them, teaching them about Jesus, teaching them about the right kind of husband to marry. Teaching them about life, and love and values. That is what matters.
And did I mention I love it?
In the end, I will look back and I will have no regrets.
Thank you God, for giving me the most important job in the world. It's completely awesome.
