Your Family Is the Way

“Your family isn’t in the way. They are the way.” — Unsung Hero

It will never cease to amaze me that I get to be their mother. This weekend was so full & it’s made me take pause this morning in some reflection. 💝

Motherhood is such a precious gift — one I will never take for granted. As I get older, I’m thankful that my heart is starting to fully recognize that the true riches of life are found snuggled up on the couch with my kiddos, answering their random questions on a long car drive, listening to them belt out songs in the shower, watching them play, long hugs & kisses on their forehead, laughing together, praying together — simply by just ‘being’ together. They (& my husband ☺️) are my entire heart, my home.🙏🏼

My heart goes out to all the selfless & strong mama bears out there, all those expecting, those who are longing to become a mother, those who have lost or miscarried, all the single mothers, those who have lost their mama, those who never knew a mother, those who are wanting to adopt, those who are fostering, & those who are in a storm right now. I’m praying for you & your heart. May you feel the sunshine this week & bigger pockets of hope. ✨

Thank you to my beautiful mama for giving her all in raising us, her generous heart & love. Thank you to my mother-in-love for raising such an extraordinary man & loving me like a daughter. 💕

Thank you to all my incredible mama friends who inspire, pray, encourage, reach out, show up & lend listening ears when needed (you all know who you are!).

I am just so deeply thankful. 🤍
