I had a good day today. Got to hang out with my kids and as always, some laughs could be heard and some shouting.

God! I sometimes wonder if I shout too much and if I am driving my kids crazy! Or if am raising decent human beings that God can be proud of. Or just if I am letting out my frustrations about things that have nothing to do with them, on them.

Today though, that’s not the focus. Today I get to celebrate the gift of motherhood and the great blessing it is. I get to reflect on these eight years I have been a mom and see God’s guiding hand and mercy. I get to say thanks for though my daughter has never told me ‘Happy Mother’s Day mum!’ I am confident that God will bring that day to pass.

I am looking forward to seeing these people grow, and I definitely pray that I will not mess them up but I will raise children I can present before God and say, ‘I did my best with these babies you entrusted me with’.

And if you are like me, and somedays you are unsure if you are on the right path? Take heart. The fact that this question is on your mind and mine, means we are on the right path.

Happy Mother’s Day!
