With Mother’s Day coming up, my pastor’s wife, Holly Furtick, is asking the following question:
You Know You’re a Mom When…
I thought it was fun and wanted to share my response:
~ You want to jerk the neighborhood kid off the trampoline by his ear and march him home, but don’t because you might be overreacting.
~ You have to go to your little girl’s closet to find your heels.
~ You are constantly reminded what it is to have “child like” faith.
~ Your fave time of day is usually bedtime and you aren’t ashamed to admit it.
~ Popcorn and Choc milk are a well rounded breakfast. Fiber, veggie, protein, dairy….
~ You have to say “I’m sorry” for saying the word stupid.
~ You get a glimpse of what true unconditional love is because you yell or handle a parenting situation badly and yet your kids still want to crawl into your lap and say “I love you.”
~ You go to Ikea just to drop your kids off in the playland for an hr and head up to the cafe to read a book and do your devotions. SCORE!!!!
~ You are proud of yourself for using a word with more than 2 syllables!!!
~ Jesus speaks to you through your kids….everyday. It’s humbling.
I could go on and on…as I am sure you can!!!
Now, I am asking you the same!!
YOU KNOW YOU’RE A MOM WHEN……
