Thoughtful Thursday

Someone once asked me what my favorite thing is about being a mom. Where do I start?? The smiles. The cuddling. The comforting. The new experiences. The BIG eyes. The funny noises. The giggles. Everything about Jonah is what I LOVE about being a mom.

Maybe the better question is what will I love best about being a mom? As in, I maybe it hasn’t happened yet. 3 John 1:4 says, “I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth.” My sister told me the story of how at Easter time her eldest daughter Ella prayed with Katy and asked Jesus to live in her heart. She got to help lead her daughter to start a relationship with Jesus. I cry every time I think about this story because I cannot wait to help lead my children to start the greatest journey with Christ.

Every day with Jonah is the reason I love being a mommy. I just can’t wait to see Jonah walking in the truth. It will bring me greater joy than I have ever experienced.
