As you may know last year at this time I was explaining how Rob and I had renamed Mother's Day Fussy sock day and that we would not go to church that day. I went to church this year. No, I did not have baby in the last year but the lord has softened my heart and shown me a few things. I have been blessed to be called to Young Women's where I am the Secretary. I love my calling and the fact that I now have 12 girls that I get to help on there path to womanhood. I also have many little nieces and nephews that I love to spoil and there parents let me. I have been so blessed. Something has changed in me because I didn't just go to church today I loved being there. There was a young man that spoke today that I used to babysit when he was very little. I was there when he became a big brother for the first time...what a joy it is to me to see what a wonderful young man he has become.
I also am reminded of the 5 little Dachshunds that I have that call me mom. Some may think I have lost my mind but in a way I feel that these Dachshunds are preparing me for motherhood. I have to feed them, get up with then in the middle of the night when they are sick, bath them, take them to the vet when they are sick and on and on. Yes, I know they are dogs but when they don't feel good they come to me and when they need loves they come to me so that makes me mom:)
