Lucky.

“I feel lucky when my mom gives me love.”

Mason brought this home from school this week. Talk about melting a mama’s heart!

He doesn’t care that I mess up, that I have to ask for forgiveness more times than I would like to admit. He forgets when I respond out of anger and yell or when I am just way too impatient. When I forget that he IS only 6 years old and he IS going to mess up.

He still feels lucky when I give him love.

Really, I think I am the lucky one.

Thanks Mase, your Mom needed this one.

  1. Oh wow. That is just the best! It is wonderful when God reaffirms our calling as mothers through His little ones. I would have that puppy laminated and carry it in my wallet ;)

  2. I know exactly what you’re saying! There are so many times when I’m impatient with my kiddos and then later, I stop and think, “They’re young, they’re still learning. I mess up all the time, so why do I think they won’t?”

  3. I know! Why is this so hard to remember? Maybe because I hear myself say the same things over and over and over and I’m irritating myself! But I know the Lord has been teaching me some of the same things over and over again as well:)

  4. Great idea! I love it. And when he is a bit older and not feeling so “lucky” to me as his mom I will cling to my little laminated card:)
