Let’s get deep for a minute… Yesterday was a hard day at our house. There was wailing, there was sassing, there were many skipped naps, and at any given time, one of the three girls in our house was crying (often all three of us at once)! The vibes were simply *off*. After several hours of the same, I cried to God and simply asked if I was cut out for this. Not for any fault of my girls, but simply because I felt not enough on every level. And the instant phrase that God put on my heart was “just because it’s hard doesn’t mean it’s not meant for you.” Simply put, if anything about motherhood was easy we wouldn’t depend on God. I’d start to think that I was somehow really good at this… rather than leaning on God himself in my hardest moments (and really every moment). I was reminded that God has uniquely equipped me to be the mother of my two precious girls. He looked at every mother in the world and thought “yes they belong together.“ So I clung to him, and eventually the crying subsided, the attitudes improved, and we all got some sleep. Thank you God for the gift of motherhood! And if you’re in the trenches today to, I’m praying this meets you right where you’re at 💛 newborn secondtimemom motherhood momlife
