Pondering

As I walked past my daughter's bedroom, a familiar tune played in her room. I put Eliana down to sleep with soft Christian music. When the cd player part of the boombox broke, I was relegated to using a cassette tape. So as I walked past her room tonight, I heard a tune that brought back a whole flood of memories. Memories that make me miss the home I grew up in, miss my Mom, miss how simple things were. I had to remind myself that in 30 years from now (if my Lord hasn't returned) I will be looking back on this time with those same memories. Memories of my children as little ones. Can I cry now?

Have a good cry! I've been thinking a lot about time and that verse came to mind, (Matt. 6:34) "Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." It reminded that I need to take today and use it to it's fullest and to treasure my kids today, taking every opportunity to drink them in and not be angry if they write on the walls etc. but to be the best Mom I can be for them. I find it easier said than done but I'm trying. I am thinking about you today. God has plans, wonderful plans . . . He even knows about your broken CD player. I love it that He is in the details.
