Hey Mom!
Are you looking forward to having the spotlight all on you this Sunday?
You are a rockstar!
Let your people love on and spoil you this weekend!
It’s time to honor you!
I know motherhood is hard. It’s endless hours of being available and “on.” It’s putting yourself last much of the time. I know it can be exhausting and thankless.
Hopefully, you have a supportive spouse or significant other or friends who cheer you on! (And don’t forget to teach those little ones to say “thank you”!)
But if not, I am in your corner, jumping up and down! Here I am shouting, “You are amazing!” “I celebrate you today!” “You’re doing an outstanding job!”
If you’re feeling a little worn down and weary…
If you’re wishing for a break…
If you’re not sure you’re cut out for this job…
Just remember, this is a marathon and a journey. It’s not a sprint.
And there is grace for every step.
Some seasons will certainly be busier and go by faster. But keep the long game in mind.
This is an adventure with the Lord and your kids.
Keep the relationships in the front of your mind. If your little one is only 2 years old, picture them in 10 years. And then in 20 years.
What do you want your relationship to look like at those intervals? In keeping the big picture vision in mind, you won’t get bogged down in the daily stuff as much.
Remember that God chose you to be the mama out of all the women in the world today. He picked you for your child and your child for you. He wove all that DNA together and tied an enormous bow on top. His gifts are good and perfect.
So I hope they greet you on Sunday morning with breakfast in bed or a pleasant lunch out or a fun picnic at your favorite park!
It’s your special day. Enjoy every moment.
Thinking of you,
Scarlett xo
