Motherhood

is harder than I ever imagined.

is also better than I ever imagined.

makes me grateful for new mercies everyday.

has challenged me beyond belief.

has caused many tears of joy (and many tears in general).

has caused me to pray without ceasing.

has given me hope.

made me fall in love with my husband again.

makes me love my parents on a whole new level.

makes my cheeks hurt from smiling.

has made me stronger than I knew possible.

makes me want to be better.

is crazy.

is amazing and a blessing.

Happy Mother's Day to all of those who join me in this crazy journey.
