Quite often something will spur a memory and I'll ask the kids "remember when". Usually they say, "No, not really."
The other night my son asked me, "Mom, how can you remember all of these things?" I think the answer is because all these moments have been written on my heart, tattooed, etched, and forever imprinted there. I drank in every moment as if I was parched and desperate to fill this life with the five greatest gifts that God had given me.

God has put it on my heart to share my story, experiences, and journey as a mother of five. I have been in the trenches of motherhood for years. What I have learned is that God is in the small stuff, the everyday stuff, all we have to do is change our perspective. We have this great opportunity to infuse the character and attributes of God into our children's hearts.
When my children were little the days were long, but the years were short. So grab another cup of coffee because you won't want to miss a single moment of the greatest years of your life!
