A mom plays many roles. We wear many hats and have multiple jobs. We are a cook, housekeeper, organizer, tutor, chauffeur, chaperone, detective, a friend, some are wives, and some are sisters. I must admit my job as a sister is a little easier than a mom. My sister is the best friend anyone could ask for. Don't get me wrong we have had our spats and pushed each others buttons. We have laughed, cried, hit, punched, pulled hair, got each other out of trouble, but best of all...we are there for each other and always willing to listen. I absolutely LOVE watching my sister with Maddie. She is Maddie's idol and would do anything for her. Over the last couple of months I have really wished I lived in the same city as my sister. She is needing some extra love and probably needing my Maddie a little more right now than normal. My heart aches for her. I know God has huge plans. It is so hard to understand or even wait to find out what God's plans are for our lives. In the end He always surprises us! Even when we have pushed each others buttons, it has made us stronger. We find which buttons are our weaknesses and which ones are our strengths. They bind us together just like the buttons in this wreath. Once they are all put together it then turns into a big, beautiful circle of love. Maddie and I love you so much Casey. You are a model of strength and from me being a mom, you teach me many lessons. My repurpose for today: Realize that God pushes our buttons not to make us weak but to only make us stronger and show us that we are in His circle of love.
