Best Mother’s Day gift- having them all home. Back from Africa, back from BHam. House full. Heart full.

Happy Mother’s Day to all. May you feel celebrated and loved today. May you feel gratitude for the roles that have allowed you to mother.

Today I was reminded of this: “The world is mostly teaching us to live for ourselves”- @eric_o_jacobsen

“If you chose self-sacrifice and lose your lives for my glory, you will continue to discover true life. But if you choose to keep your lives for yourselves, you will forfeit what you try to keep.” -Jesus, as translated by Eugene Peterson.

Keep going mamas. It’s all worth it.

Everything that was broken has forgotten its broke

Everything that was broken has
forgotten its brokenness. I live
now in a sky-house, through every
window the sun. Also your presence.
Our touching, our stories. Earthy

- Mary Oliver

As Dr Johnson said, ‘To be happy at home is the end of all human endeavour’. (1st to be happy, to prepare for being happy in our own real Home hereafter: 2nd, in the meantime, to be happy in our houses.) We wage war in order to have peace, we work in order to have leisure, we produce food in order to eat it. So your job is the one for which all others exist.” C.S. Lewis
