As we adjust to this new season of life,
with our eldest being away,
the Father continually opens my eyes
to the many and daily blessings
that He gives in each season of motherhood.
One of those has been the blessing
of seeing our younger children rally together,
to 'step up to the plate' of carrying more responsibility
in the household 'work load'.
They eagerly do what they can
to serve with joy and delight,
which, in turn, brings
joy and delight to this mama's heart.
"Two are better than one;
because they have a good reward for their labour."
Ecclesiastes 4:9
