This weekend my amazing husband presented me with the best Mother's Day present! No...we don't have children. No...I'm not pregnant. And no...it wasn't for how I'm a "mother" to my cat.
The gift was for what I am doing NOW to prepare myself and our house for the hopeful role of becoming a mother down the road. The sacrifice we both made to leave my corporate job and embrace my Rodan + Fields business full time was something we fervently prayed through before taking action. The commitment I have made to this decision is my driving force every day, knowing that one day when we are blessed with a child, I won't have to worry about maternity leave, or the pressure of finding a day care within those time constraints, or the pinch that having children puts on household finances.
Being a Mother is something I deeply desire. And being a wife to someone that appreciates everything I am presently doing to fulfill that future role and contribute to our family is truly a blessing from God!
Single ladies...(meaning not married. If you haven't married him, you are still single) find a Godly man who celebrates you, not only for who you ARE, but also for who you will become! Having someone who sees the great work still to be done in you and celebrates that before it is brought to light is a gift from God.
So thankful for my gift - both the present and my amazing husband!
