School Year Prayers from a Mama’s Heart – February
Love is difficult to define to a child or anyone really. While the world sells love in red lipstick, smooth skin, an hour-glass figure, and luscious eye lashes, we know real love has nothing to do with appearance or performance.

I mean who else can cook a hot meal, feed a baby, help with homework, talk to a friend on the phone, wipe a bottom, write a blog and mop the floor all at the same time. Moms just have a special knack for getting things done. I used to feel a sense of pride when I did a hundred things at once. It made me feel like the super woman I wanted to be, but the

Our newborn baby was already fussing and I was exhausted. The sounds that were coming from my precious little one nearly sent me into a panic attack as I wondered how in the world I was going to care for this new life. She screamed the entire way home. I unbuckled the
