We prayed for a miracle which God granted in heaven. Daily we walk the path of grief, ever leaning on Jesus for our comfort. Until we meet again Millie, always remember you are forever loved and missed!

I know you are weary mama





Dear mama, I know you are weary. {Preaching to myself}
Being a mama is hard work. {I had no idea how hard!}
Every day, every moment, someone needs you.
They need to touch you, talk to you, be with you, and breathe on you. They are busy trying to be just like you.
As little kids they clomp around the house in your shoes.
They lay across your pillow, never mind your head being there first.
They stick their fingers under the bathroom door every time you head for the toilet.
They stand silently over your body, intently willing you to wake up so they can tell you they can’t sleep.
As teens, they are most ready to talk just as your eyes grow heavy and midnight approaches.
They say you are the meanest mother they know. They declare you are ruining their life. They even announce they are running away because you don’t love them. {If only they knew how deeply you do}
They break your heart, over and over and over again.
Yes motherhood is so hard.
But one day their perspective shifts. Maybe it was when they needed your advice. It might have been when they moved out of your home. It most definitely was when their first baby arrived. At that point you became wise in their eyes. You now understood all the things they thought you never did.
On that day, they looked at you with new eyes and an admiration you haven’t seen since they were preschoolers; back when they thought you hung the moon.
Yes, on that day they rose us and called you blessed as Proverbs 31 says. The day every mom waits for.
Oh, it might not sound like the word 'blessed' rather a quick, "Thanks Mom" and a relieved smile, but there is more there than meets the eye.
Hang on mama. I know you are weary, but that day is coming in the blink of an eye—hang on.
~Because of Millie ~
Blessings sweet friends…
