Song of Songs 8:7
We were married a little over 5 years before we had children. We thought maybe we couldn’t have children of our own. We decided to start the adoption process and in the meantime I got pregnant. In less than two years we had 2 boys! Motherhood was not what I expected. Our first son was six weeks premature. Both boys had allergies, tubes in their ears and tonsils removed all at a young age. It was hard working full time with many sleepless nights. I didn’t realize all the self-sacrifices involved in raising children. Even though motherhood requires self-sacrificing love, it’s definitely worth it. God used the experience of having and raising our boys to teach me about love, and to draw me closer to Jesus. I’m thankful that God blessed me with two sons. My love for each one is deep and forever.
Judy, the way you describe motherhood – so authentic and sincere. You are a joy to read as well as to be with, my friend. Your family focus is some kind of inspirational.
Love you!
Children are truly a blessing from the Lord, but your children and grandchildren are truly blessed to have such a godly role model and prayer warrior as their mother/grandmother and I feel blessed to call you my friend! Love, Hugs & Laughter! 💐
