brothers






Sometimes I ponder what my purpose is here on this great big Earth. How small or how big my impact might be. 

Now that I am the mom to three beautiful boys, I've come to realize that God has put me here for at least one BIG purpose... 

To raise my boys. 

To teach them all that I can about love and life and happiness. To raise boys with hearts of gold who will grow to be loving, happy successful men (that know how to take care of their wives)!

I love watching the three of them interact as brothers. I am so happy they have that. I was never around boys or brothers growing up. It's always been just my sister and I, so I always pictured my future full of sisters! 

I'm so thankful for my house full of brothers. I pray my husband and I can give them the love and support they need, to grow to be close brothers forever. 

I hope I can survive the fighting, the whining, the kicking and screaming that comes along with a brood of boys! They are fun, but they are a lot of work! wink. wink. ;)

So here's to brothers... may they love each other and protect each other... and let's hope they don't beat each other up too often.

  1. ok what is it with my emotions??? I am crying over here! I think that you are so right. I have these same thoughts, prayers and dreams. I pray that I too raise my children to love and protect and just be there for one another forever. This is a huge responsibility that God has trusted us with! It is the best thing that has ever been placed in my care and I am so blessed. Thank you for making me take a moment today to thank Gad for what he has given to us!
