Nienie dialogue and motherhood


For days I have been intrigued and inspired by the life of Stephanie Nielson



and her family. Thanks to Tabbi, I was given this link and rediscovered some of the easily forgotten joys of motherhood and womanhood. I feel so blessed to be able to take part in the most nobelist of Gods work. It was several years after Aspen was born that I truly came to love my calling as a mother. Sure, there are long days and even longer nights on occasion, but I wouldn't trade all those crazy pull-my-hair-out days for all the chocolate in the world. I love to be at home with my children and feel it is the right place for me to be. Granted, it is not without it's challenges, but what other job- if done right- is? I'm thankful for my moms listening ear and sympathy as I express my frustrations about my job, even though she always reply's "I don't even remember that Jen". At least she's been there done that, which supports me immensely. And the perk is, I likely wont remember all the trying days when I'm my moms age- what a relief! I love my teen drama momma, bahama momma and little momma, and the their fathers great help in getting them here!
