But it is an important battle and certainly one worth fighting. So glad you reposted this morning! But they love my attention and snuggles and words. Thanks for reminding me. There is certainly a balance but a good reminder helps us re-align our perspective when we are leaning too far one way. I am reading this post late, but I still want to say thank you.
I am a foster mother who is constantly looking for ways to help our children become whole again. This has given me wonderful perspective on how my husband and I can plant seeds that will empower, and help grow our children into adults with self worth, love, and forgivness. Thank you so much!
Never late; I pray this post reached you right on time, Nicole! Thank you for bravely helping the broken; it takes tremendous courage to do. I am the one who is blessed if my words get to become even the smallest part of your journey. Wishing you the very best. I found this post on Pinterest, and I love it.
Thank you for the encouragement written here. So glad you wrote this.
The closing thoughts about praying for our children….. Was the most profound and touching point. Praying that prayer continually. Thank you Katie for your wonderful sharing and openness!! Every word such wisdom!!! Oh my goodness, thank you so much! My daughter is 8 and she is growing up so fast. This moves me to tears. God blessed me today, through your transparency, to pause, stop and correct my behavior. The hustle and bustle of work, home and just living through has eroded who I really want to be if I am not careful.
I am a taskmaster in my business and often bring that person home from the office too often.
God bless your ministry. I feel those tear on the days when we realize just how fast it all goes, Dionne. You are so wise to pause and reset; we all need that at times. Wishing you the best! Those words sink deeper than we often realize. Letting some of that go is probably a good idea, Shawn. Thank you Katie for these words.
Beautifully written and wonderful words of truth and reminders I was meant to hear today! Thank you so much for taking a moment to let me know, Aubrey. God is that good. I absolutely love this!!

Looking forward to reading your ideas and newsletters. If it were easy, fathers would do it. She is one strong lady. All love begins and ends there. She was a high school dropout and a single mom, but somehow she managed to make a better life for herself and her children.
She encouraged her kids to be creative, to work hard, and to do something special. And I just want to say, I love you, Mom. Thank you for teaching me to dream. She had a full-time job, and she still came home and made dinner for us every night, from scratch. Intuition kicks in, where you will do anything for them and you have all the tools inside of you to take care of them.
Your baby is a book. Just pick it up and read it. Everything else just disappears. She taught me about the importance of home and history and family and tradition. She also taught me that aging need not mean narrowing the scope of your activities and interests or a diminution of the great pleasures to be had in the everyday.
These are the things my mom taught me. She was the love of my life. Everybody is just doing the best they can. She puts her head down and she gets it done. And she finds a way to have fun.
And she said something before I left home. Is that a crazy thing to say? But my mother survived the camps, and she was very strong. She made me strong, but she wanted me to be strong. She is an amazing woman. But my mom was always my friend. But I have a survival mechanism that was instilled in me by my mother. We just do the best we can. You heart is beating outside your body when you have a baby.
And she finds a way to have fun. My mom would have never faulted me for leaving my house untidy last month, but still her words had an effect on me. There is the mom who defined worth by achievement and pushed her children to work relentlessly. Words cannot convey how much our friendship means to me. If you read about our vacation , you know this was the beginning of one huge downhill slide, but at that point I only knew I had to be up at 4: Or the climbing, falling colors of a rainbow. If it is there, it is like a blessing; if it is not there it is as if all the beauty had gone out of life.
I kind of wish it would have happened to me earlier in my life. You seem to be logged out. Refresh your page, login and try again. Sorry, comments are currently closed.
