ONE...
Today I become a mama(in flesh, already been in my heart) … to ONE more blessing from God.
which means...
ONE more little face to the family picture.
ONE more setting at the table.
ONE more face smiling back at me in the rear view mirror of BIG MAMA!
ONE more silly song singer.
ONE more nonsense Joke-maker.
ONE more giggler
ONE more family dance party dancer.
ONE more little coat to zip.
ONE more snowman builder
ONE more lego tower maker
ONE more little artist who will create masterpieces for my wall.
ONE more to tuck in and snuggle with at night.
ONE more I will no doubt mortify and embarrass thousands of time throughout their lifetime.
ONE more to hug.
ONE more bed jumper.
ONE more snack sneaker.
ONE more chore avoider.
ONE more bus rider who waves enthusiastically at me out the window as If I am a ROCK star, as they head off to school.
ONE more bath-tub scuba diver to certify.
ONE more who will bring home flowers(weeds) to make mommy smile.
ONE more little stocking to fill!
ONE more cup of hot cocoa waiting after playtime in the snow.
ONE more who will no doubt teach me to love a little more like our Father Loves.
ONE more who WILL know Jesus.
ONE - hundred forty seven million, less ONE, orphan in the world
ONE more who will be given the chance to live to their potential
ONE more who will not cry themselves to sleep at night wondering what it feels like to have a family.
ONE more to love with all my heart….
Thank you Jesus, for every ONE of my blessings that Come straight from a Father who love is unconditional and infinite.
I am ONE blessed mama!
