Reflections: A Mother’s Heart

Holding my sweet daughter tonight, I once again felt the sacred love that a mother has for her child. As she lay in my arms I felt that I would willingly give all, do all to help her succeed in this life and truly thrive. How I do love her! I found myself singing “You are my Sunshine” and crying on the last stanza. “Please don’t take my sunshine away.” It’s amazing how someone who wasn’t even a twinkle in my eye a few years ago now owns a great piece of my heart. How grateful I am to a loving Heavenly Father who placed the seeds of love in a girls’ heart long ago that are now manifesting themselves in my children. What a wonderful, sacred thing to be a mother!

How to Steal a Mommy's Heart


Tonight my 2 year old walked into the washroom where I was folding clothes.
I said, "Hi you cute boy."
He replied, "Hi you cute (pause) Mommy! Cute Mommy!"
Stolen heart? Absolutely!
