Privileged

The last six months have been the most amazing and also the hardest of my life! I have the incredible priviledge of being "mommy" to an amazing little boy. My joy is unspeakable, my spirit undeflatable (is that a word??), my heart constantly swells with more love than I ever imagined possible. It's interesting how such a tiny person can take up so much space in your life and at the same time how you continuously find more space for him than what you ever knew you had!

He needed more space for his clothes.
 Found this adorable little dresser and the perfect spot for it! 

I have had the privilege of joining the daycare drop-off, sick day bank depleting, no time for cooking or cleaning life of a working mom. Yet, I feel more like 'me' than I ever have before. He reminds me daily that I was destined to be a mommy. I waited and hoped and prayed and now I have JOY.

Its not easy though, as any parent will tell you. I don't know what the future holds and I can't help but worry. So whenever I am afraid I turn to God. I choose to trust him because He is the only one who holds my future and my baby's future in HIS hands. No matter what happens I know God loves him more than I ever could, and therefore I trust that his destiny is secure.

My hope is in God and I am so thankful. 

So thankful that I have this privilege.
