the measure of a day.

did i hug them?
did i kiss them?
did i tell them i love them? so much?
did i tell them i love Jesus?
did i tell them about Jesus?
did i give them intentional attention?
did i give them individual attention?
did i make them laugh?
did they make me laugh?
did we read books?
did we do something new?
did i make them feel special?
did we play together?
did we pray together?
did i pray for them?
did i discipline in love?
did i stop housework to say i love you?
did i take care of special needs?
did i tell them they are a blessing? a HUGE blessing?

oh celine...that is so what i needed to hear. i have had many moments recently of being an impatient mama. those simple questions should be ones we ask ourselves each day. so thank you for a beautiful reminder of what it looks like to be a mama.
