as cliche as it may sound, my kids ARE my pride & joy. today i walked into my daughter's school to find her searted in the front of the assesmbly. she had just done her turn at a spelling competition. i ddidn't even know she could spell all those words, wow! she didn't even know she was going to be selected. the most amazing thing is, she actually stood up in front og everybody and used the mike for the first time. way to go my darling, i'm SOOOOOO proud of u sweetie!
earlier in the day my heart just burst with pride when my son told me he was thinking of being a doctor. i don't know if it was the way he used the word 'thinking', or his serious contemplative look, or his choice of noble profession. until i asked him why he wanted to be a doctor, and with his adorable little face contorted in pain and concern, told me 'because i don't want people to be hurt' at that moment, i knew we had done a good job with this parenting thing. for little man hardly able to reach anything, his heart n mind had truly reached the stars. for a small man to have so much empathy AND a plan t fix it was just amazing.
thank you Lord for our wonderful children.
