We are currently in the full-blown toddler phase, which feels like a never-ending rollercoaster. It continues to bring out so many different emotions in me. I have been awakened at times and found myself asking my son, “whose child is this?” He goes from the sweetest loving boy to this stomping, crying, and hitting little human.
In moments of correction, I feel horrible. When my tone is not as pleasant or I have to say “no” to something. I have to remember the undertone of all things is love; frustration at times, but still love.
Truthfully I find myself questioning my motherly instincts. Then I get OUT of my feelings and into the FACTS, I AM CHOSEN! This incredible toddler was gifted to me, to watch over as well as help navigate through life. Bumps, bruises, shortcomings and all, there was no better person for the job, because the one for the job was assigned and that is me.
From mama to mama remember during the crumbs, cries, and everything in-between, YOU ARE CHOSEN!
Proverbs 31:26
She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.
