Oh how I Want to be a good momma
Mothering is really something special. I really love it but it is so hard at times. Lately I've been feeling so emotional about it. I want to be the best I can be for my kiddos! Am I doing that?! I don't know, but I do feel like I'm trying and that's all I can do. I'm trying with the help and guidance of my sweet Jesus to be the best mommy to spicer Beth and axl joe. After all, these two deserve nothing less than my best. I have felt so judged by those around me lately, probably just an attack and no one is judging at all, but nonetheless that's how I feel. I feel like I've been the topic of conversation with my decisions as a mom. No one likes to feel that way. But when you go against the norm I guess people will talk. I've felt so alone lately. Again, probably an attack and self-pity. I'm so thankful that no matter what my Jesus reminds me of what he's called me to as a wife and mommy and now teacher to my kiddos. I'm thankful his word reminds me daily of what he's called me and my family too. Some may not understand, but that's ok. It's me and my family and yours is you and your family. I don't judge you. As for me and my house we will serve the Lord! God is faithful and I am thankful! Just needed to share from my heart today. :)

Oh Kerri, you are an inspiration. I know you are an excellent momma. I see it on your blog, but I also know your heart. I know how you feel. I often feel like others judge my decisions with Kendrix even at this early age, but I have been learning to care only what God thinks. It is very hard for me as a people pleaser, but I really just want to be a Jesus pleaser. Take care.
ReplyDeleteYou are one amazing momma NEVER doubt that!!! When people judge or criticize it generally comes from their own self doubt and insecurities. You are doing what you feel led to do for you family & you can never go wrong with that! Love ya!
ReplyDeleteIve found a lot of encouragement in Hebrews 11 lately. So many Godly examples of people stepping out in faith, yet each of their lives look so different. They all had a story to tell and God used their lives in such unique and amazing ways. The world doesnt need cookie cutter families...It needs families who arent afraid to follow God's will for their lives! It sounds like you are doing just that! :) Hang in there girl!
