A great article for mamas to read:
Motherhood Is a Calling (And Where Your Children Rank)A little excerpt...
Live the gospel in the things that no one sees. Sacrifice for your children in places that only they will know about. Put their value ahead of yours. Grow them up in the clean air of gospel living. Your testimony to the gospel in the little details of your life is more valuable to them than you can imagine. If you tell them the gospel, but live to yourself, they will never believe it. Give your life for theirs every day, joyfully. Lay down pettiness. Lay down fussiness. Lay down resentment about the dishes, about the laundry, about how no one knows how hard you work.
Okay, now go read the whole thing :)

Hey Jen! I love this! I just re-entered the blog world, so look forward to staying in touch! Hope you had a great beach trip with your fam. The pics I saw on Facebook are great! You have such a beautiful family!
Thanks for this article. A good challenge and encouragement especially on a day like today where I am feeling all my weaknesses. I'm thankful for God's tender mercies to carry on.
