Motherhood: A Miraculous Gift!
Posted by AndreaYour eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. (Psalm 139:16)
From the time I was a little girl, I knew I wanted to be a mother. I have fond memories of mothering my favorite dolls. The first was a beautiful brown baby doll named Love Notes and she was soon followed by a precious bald Cabbage Patch Doll named Heidi Ethelin. I recall dutifully changing my dolls’ diapers, faithfully feeding them, pushing them in strollers all around our recreation room, and singing sweet lullabies to them. After a full day of doll play, I often dreamed of the day when I would mother a baby of my own.
Now I no longer dream, as God has blessed me with two darling daughters! While carrying Sweet Pea and Sugar Plum, I was amazed by the wonderful work God was performing inside of me. Throughout both pregnancies, I marveled at the miracle of life and thanked God for the gift of motherhood. Today, as I think about how God chose me to carry, birth, and nurture two of His very finest blessings, I am so very grateful for His love and kindness.
Today, I hope you will be able to join a special woman in celebrating the joys of motherhood and the miracle of life!
Happy Mother’s Day to you, Andrea!
