::thoughts on motherhood [in which its like a garden]::


it starts as a seed and grows into beauty.
as mothers we cultivate it, much like a garden.
watering little souls with grace and mercy, love and kindness, hoping to reep the sown.



doing the best we can, truly living on the prayer that they will change the world. do small things with great love. forgive as they have been forgiven. love and love well, having life abundant.


knowing in my heart, they will do as i do, not as i say do, it starts with me.

if i want them to love, i must love.
if i want them to forgive, i must forgive.
if i want them to show grace, i must show grace.
if i want them to be friendly, i must be friendly.
if i want them to serve, i must serve.
if i want them to enjoy life, i must enjoy life.
if i want them to care more about people than things, i must care more about people than things.

the seeds are planted.



be as you wish to seem
