Mother


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.
