Sappy pregnancy hormone induced post

Hey ladies! So yesterday was Mom's day and I've been sentimental since then thinking about my family and my priorities and how lucky I am. My little girl is due in 8 short weeks and my little boy is growing like a weed and changing literally every day. I am so floored by how much God has blessed me and my family. For starters he has blessed me with an AMAZING husband. I mean....really amazing! My husband works so hard at his job (he's in IT) and does whatever he can so that I can be a stay at home Mom which is what I've always dreamed of. He's also an incredibly devoted father and genuinely enjoys spending time with Liam...currently he's teaching him how to skateboard. I know that our daughter is going to be just as cherished by my husband as Liam is and that makes me feel overwhelmingly happy and fulfilled. I didn't have a good relationship with my Dad growing up and I've always said, ever since I was a little girl, that any guy that I married would have to be a devoted father who put Jesus first in his life and loved and cherished his family. I am so lucky to have found that man and I feel so proud to call him my husband. I'm sure some of you are familiar with this song but I wanted to put it on here because it truly defines what I feel it means to be a good parent. I don't think I would be a good mother if I didn't have God in my life to lead me. God's direction and grace is what has shaped my parenting and given me the skills that I need to be a good Mom. I owe the relationship I have with my family to him and his unfailing love and support!

Please listen to this song and let me know what you think...its beautiful!

  1. Beautiful song but sad too. I took it as a man struggling with his priorities in life and a wife and children aching to have him in their life more.

  2. You are so cute. :) I am SO happy for you, and I think it's amazing that you guys put God first. When God is put first, everything else falls into place perfectly.. and that is what's happening for you. xoxo

  4. Hi Kelsey!
    I loved this song so much that I posted it to all my friends (my hubby, too) that are husbands and fathers.
    I have never heard it before- it was beautiful!
    I have the same relationship with my own father as you do, and am so blessed to have a man like mine.
    Praise God for His love for us!
