Being a mom

Prayer works! It's not easy being a mom ... especially when it comes to our children spreading their wings. I am excited to see my children grow ... and I'm not one to hold them back. I encourage my children to look to God & ask His direction in their life. We pray ... and counsel ... but will not make their decisions. With freedom comes great responsibility. It blesses me when they show a willingness to follow God ... no matter what He asks of them. It blesses me when they pray & ask Him for something .. and though they may not like how He chooses to work in their lives (and some times it may even sting a bit) ... that they accept it & want to continue growing. I truly am honored to be the mom of all these wonderful children!!!
