A great quote

I'm reading Lord, Please Meet Me in the Laundry Room by Barbara Curtis. I'm about halfway through, but just now I read this sentence, and it hit me squre between the eyes:
Sometimes in the daily grind, I lose sight of the fact that motherhood is not something God has burdened me with but something He has blessed me with.


(I am loving this book, by the way!!!)

Wow, I love that! God has really been working on me in that area lately....of looking at my blessings and not burdens. Never heard of the book but will have to keep that in mind (I've got a laundry list of books to read).

I love Barbara's book. It is so good. I thought it was the best book on mothering I've ever read.

Me too! I read it last week. I love it. It was the perfect thing for me to read last week.

I read this book too and reviewed it in my blog -- then I discovered Barbara Curtis has a website -- Mommy Life! Was I the last to know? What an inspiring book.

I discovered your site through AllThings2All. I can tell you find joy in your mothering -- I'll be back to visit!! :)
