In loving our kids, we find our soul

We, moms sometimes...
kind of lose our minds when raising kids but definitely, 
we find our soul.

Parenting's not just an obligation but a privilege and realizing that, it feels like grace is permissive to have picked and included us to do the role...and while our kids are "works in progress", we are too.

We put some effort, time... all our resources in, and much of the love we can give...then we find ourselves graced with more because raising kids is a gifted role.

Undeniably there's a decline in active kids...and I have this sort of thought... "back in our time then..." Sighs! Parents hope we can fully trust what's going on outside wouldn't harm our kids... the pandemic has added negative impact on our kids' well-being... of course parents understand the importance of encouraging kids to spend more time doing physical activities and active play, and away from technology. Outdoor play's benefits for kids' development are extensive...and parents can only hope we all find our kids having ample opportunities to play outside... This afternoon while doing paper ta...
