"On the day I called, You answered me; my strength of soul You increased." Ps. 138:3
"He will tend His flock like a Shepherd; He will gather the lambs in His arms; He will carry them in His bosom, and gently lead those that are with young..." Isaiah 40:11
Some days are hard. Benjamin & Joseph are both getting bottom molars & today has been one of those hard days. Both awakened early crying. Both want only mommy. All the time. I am reminded of my need to draw close to THE ONE who is my source of strength. I need strength today to stay loving & patient as I care for the precious treasures God has given me!
Sometimes desperation makes you creative. This morning, while trying to hold both boys and keep them happy, I spotted my tea pot & utensil container. Wonderful distraction! A few moments of contented play!

Debbi, I think you know the story but let me remind you that Psalm 113:9 was the verse that God used to encouraged me when your mother did not want to go to church on Mother's day in 1979. We were married just a few days short of 6 years and she was very discouraged about having no children. We prayed and you were born the next year to make JoAnn a "joyful mother of children." A mere 28 years later and you also became a mother. God is good.
