Adjusting to Motherhood... Again!

There is a big difference between adjusting to having your first child to having that first child (now a toddler) plus your second child. I have discovered that it's true the way people say you love them both the same, but it just makes for more challenges in meeting their needs. Especially when they seem to be screaming "Mommy, I need you!" in their own special ways at the same time.

However, God in His overwhelming love for us provides "precious moments" (someone once said they're called that because they rarely last more than a moment!) when all is at peace. Here was my moment from this past Tuesday morning. Enjoying the refreshingly cool morning air, trying to catch up on some Bible study, Philip enjoying playing by himself, Braewyn sleeping soundly, and the neighbor's cat joining in on the fun! I pray you will take time to slow down and recognize when God provides you with a "precious moment" too.

Hey Kim, I'm not claiming to be the expert here, but it seems like those precious moments are actually coming more and more frequently at my house now, esp since Meredith is old enough to play with Emma now (or at the very least, beside her!) You're doing great!!

Yes, thank God for precious moments! I can't wait to see video of Philip in the pool!
