Episode 170: A Quick Love Letter to You Sweet Momma
We see you.
Hair a mess...
Laundry piled up...
Lists unfinished...
Showers untaken...
We hear them...
The kids…
Fighting and crying...
Wanting the best of you...
Wanting ALLLLL of you...
Getting excited...and getting let down
...and struggling with the multitude of tiny transitions that come with this time of year.
We see your heart...
The guilt of all the 'no's you had to give this season...
The pressure to make everyone's memories sweet and meaningful...
The weight of shopping for gifts that are "even-ish" so that siblings don't compare...
The burden of being the one-woman holiday elf A-team of your family...
The overwhelm of gifts, and meals, and plans, and family, and friends, and events, and homeschooling, and cleaning...and how you'll have to balance being a "part" of everything with being the backbone of everything moving forward and going smoothly.
And we just want to tell you...you are doing beautiful work.
We see you.
Our Father in heaven sees you.
It feels messy, it feels overwhelming, it seems like all the important things won't come together...but they will.
The ones that matter will happen and the ones that don't...won't. And that's okay.
Our prayer over you…
....Never forget...you are doing beautiful work.
