Sweet Hearts

One of the things I love about Anna and Howie is their sweet hearts.

I bought the kids some new socks and showed Anna.  She said, "Thanks, Mom, that's so generous of you."

As if I never buy her socks or clothes.  As if it weren't my Biblically bound duty to feed, house and clothe my children.  As if I wouldn't take care of her needs.

And, yet, she calls me "generous" for supplying her with socks.

They make me pull out my hair at times, but they can also fill me with so much love I can barely stand it.  And, I thank God daily I get the honor of being their mother.
