Yes. I am that kind of mom. I believe the best in my kids.
Sometimes that means I miss bad behavior that must be corrected. I’m okay with that.
Sometimes it means that I believe my child’s word over another adult’s word. I’m okay with that.
Always, it means that my kids know how much I trust them. I’m great with that
Yes. I am that kind of mom. I say yes more than I say no.
Sometimes that means my kids are too busy or up too late at night. I’m okay with that.
Sometimes that means my bank account runs dry sooner than I’d like. I’m okay with that.
Always it means my kids know I enjoy seeing the laughter and happiness that come with new experiences. I’m great with that.
Yes. I am that kind of mom. I do things myself that my kids could do.
Sometimes that means extra piles of laundry. I’m okay with that.
Sometimes that means I’m doing chores I’d already delegated. I’m okay with that.
Always that means that my kids know what servant love really is. I’m great with that.
Jesus believes the best in me.
Jesus says yes more than He says no.
Jesus does things for me that I could do for myself.
Through Him I have learned what servant love really is.
Yes. I’m THAT kind of mom. I’m okay with that.
