I have had it hit me really hard lately how fast little ones grow. I am so thankful to be a mother. It has challenged me in ways I never imagined. Motherhood has taken me to a place that I can only believe is a small glimpse of my heavenly parents and the selfless life of our Savior Jesus Christ. And when times get tough and laundry, diapers, meals and cleaning don't ever seem to end-somewhere you forget all of that and all that is left are the memories. So it is my goal to make sure that I take the time to create them. Somehow, somewhere between the noise, chaos and drama there has got to be a sense of who I am and exactly what I am doing. There is an overwhelming responsibility placed on my shoulders and often I feel unequal to the task, but I have a vision for each of my children and I know that when I fall short the Savior will pick up the rest. As I recently heard a quote I have adapted the faith that the Lord does not give us a challenge just because of who we are but of who we may become.
