Freely Pouring Out … of our self… to our kids.
This is hard! Anyone else?
I mean giving up sleep to get up in the night. Cooking and cooking and cooking some more. Cleaning the kitchen after yet one more snack. Grocery shopping.
The physical pouring out for our kids is end.less.
And then there is the mental, emotional and spiritual pouring out what we do. The prayers we pray, the verses we recite, the stories we tell, the lessons we teach.
Whew.
The thing that empties my cup the fastest is my kids. The people that need my cup fullest is my family.
Believe me… it is a vicious cycle. Empty fill empty fill. Everyday.
This area of the website is created to encourage you in your mommy journey. It’s to encourage ME in this mommy journey. I need it.
You won’t find answers here, just me, another mom, trying to pour out to my kids.

When Motherhood Feels Like a Wilderness; part three. “What’s the Point?”
NEW PODCAST EPISODE is live! As Moses led 4.5 people through the wilderness. I wonder how often he asked himself; What’s the point of all this work I’m doing? . . . . As a mom, I hate to admit it but I used to often wonder the same thing… What’s the point of […]
The Job I Never Wanted, Saved my Soul
Motherhood is hard! Motherhood broke me. It screamed I couldn’t do it on my own. It yelled that I was failing. It broke me to my knees. I was squeezed. And as my sister in law says over and over… when you are squeezed you find out what is really inside you. The first […]
