… I want to leave a legacy…
This Sunday’s message at church talked about leaving a legacy… how will you be remembered? This really spoke to my heart as a mother.
How will my children remember me?
Will they have memories of me always yelling and being unhappy for one reason or another?
Or will they have happy memories of me laughing, singing, tickling, and loving them?
I pray it is the latter memory. Although, I do know that I have done my share alot lately of the grump legacy… I am doing my best to change my tune. Again, going back to the lesson that I am still struggling with – baring good fruit – leaving a legacy is just that… leading by example and producing good fruit.
What legacy will you be leaving?

This is a good one!
Hmmm…..
A strong commitment to faith, family and country. Joy and laughter in the "regular" times and strength, patience, and virtue in the difficult ones. To always delight in the ordinary, to see beauty in the common, to be content in all circumstances and above all, to love, love, love!
