As I was thinking about my oldest childs birthday, I realized that today is the anniversary of the day I began the most amazing adventure imaginable. 33 years ago today, the doctors placed in my arms the tiniest bundle of pure love, and my life was changed forever. I was nowhere near prepared, and I have screwed up A LOT on the journey, but this beginning, which has grown exponentially over time ;) , has been the most incredible and valuable experience of my infinite life. I have learned more about a humans eternal potential by watching my beautiful children. I have come to truly understand real love through the daily gifts that they give to me. I have seen the beauty of the universe in their eyes and in their hearts, and because of their love, I have come to trust the love my Heavenly Father offers me. With each new delivery from God, I was entrusted with a precious gift--each one different and distinct and necessary for me to become who I am meant to be. They have shown me unconditional love when I have deserved far less, they have forgiven me when I have fallen short...way short!.... and with their strength and love they have lifted me from the depths of my carnal being and shown me the potential of whom I really am. Each of them has been essential to my growth and well being and without any one of them, I would fall. I am grateful that when the Lord pulled them aside in council and explained plainly what they would be facing with me as a mother, but how badly I would need them to save me, they each selflessly and bravely said, Here am I, send me. I am eternally grateful for the beautiful children God has sent to me; if I have any goodness at all, it is because of you.
