But also, yes, I can see the gap in between where, as much as I love my boys, I wanted a break. I can see periods where I rely on their kinder and learning centre to teach them good behaviour and academic skills. I can see times where I hoped exsposure to God and the Bible an hour in Sunday School a week will help them to grow to be good men.
I realise, regardless of what my "job" is at the moment, whether it is mothering, coordinating Sunday School, or paid... I would always need to surround myself with people that could empower me, encourage me, and cheer me on when I am not 100%. As embarassing it is for me to admit, I rely on great relationship with inspiring people.
I do pray, that when I am at my 105%, I too in turn can do my share in encouraging, inspiring, and empowering my fellow mother friends. It is a big job being a mom, and we all struggle to be a good one. Blessings.
