Today, I love...
M's contagious laugh and mischievous smile, A's swollen cheeks and silver teeth from the dentist, J's monster slippers and how much he loves them, X's crazy dance moves, and baby J's wide toothless grin. These are a few of my favorite things.
Even when they yell at the dinner table, play with their food, cry at bedtime, throw temper tantrums, splash water from the tub, spill milk on me, make messes, and completely 100% tire me out...they are the loves of my life. The sweetest souls I've ever known.
Thank you, Lord. Thank you for filling me up with Your love through these children. Thank you for allowing me to fill them with Your love. Thank you for that moment last night, tucking A into bed, when he looked up at me and said, "I love you Rachel...so much." And I knew he meant it...so much. Right back at you, bud.
"Learn to do what is right. Seek justice, encourage the oppressed, defend
the case of the fatherless, plead the case of the widow and orphan." -
Isaiah 1:17
