Last weekend my four year old granddaughter was at my home. While playing in the sandbox she decided she wanted to plant flowers in the sand. She played for quite a while and planted many flowers from my garden to the sandbox. When she was finished she wanted to take a flower in the house to her mother.
My granddaughter went home a week ago but her flower brought in with love to her mother has been a reminder all week of the flowers that used to fill the same vase for me by my children.
The love a child has for their mother is an amazing bond. I am thankful that Heavenly Father allowed me to have the experience of being a mother. What a blessing it has been in my life.
Enjoy your children. They are each a gift from God to you. The time they will be in your home is so short but seems forever when in the process of raising them.
