Precious People

It's not about breakfast in bed, although the omelet was AMAZING or the fresh flowers picked from the neighbor's yard :O), the ever so fluffy bathrobe, or the unique handmade cards, but it is about these precious people. These people that look like me and the man of my dreams. These precious people whose smiles can turn my day from gloom to sunshine are the reason my heart is happy today. I am truly unworthy to be so blessed with these heavenly gifts. I am humbled this Mother's Day to be in such a position, a position where I have the honor to spend each day with 5 of the most precious people I have ever met.
How I would like to honor my precious people..

Show the gift of love to my children through my actions. Disciple them, shepherd them and teach them the Word of God so they will teach about Him to the next generation. Do not treat them as a burden that gets in my way because they are our true gifts from God that truly make our lives rich. In a spirit of kindness, meekness, patience and joy, spend time with them for this is really what they want--not that toy I fretted over purchasing that will sit in the corner untouched for much of the year. Imprint on their hearts righteousness as I will be helping to save their souls from wicked ways. Teach them not to be drunk on entertainment and pleasure as the world is, but teach them to serve the Lord with their lives---be committed to giving my whole life to lovingly raise them. All these will be gifts that will last a lifetime and be passed onto my grandchildren and great grandchildren whom I might never see.
