This video is precious! Ann Voscamp just came out with a new book, One Thousand Gifts, and this video was made from pictures that Ann took herself, and she is the one speaking.
My life as mother and wife feels as thought it is being given rocket fuel! I cannot believe how fast it has gone by. My "baby" is sixteen now, and I am celebrating our seventeenth anniversary with Mr. Knight in Shining Armor. It happens this time of year when my life feels like I'm in chaos, disorder, and I spend my days scrambling to catch up on housework and schoolwork, and scrambling to make sure those special moments with my children don't get pushed back for another day. Watching this video has made me even more determined to prioritize my life, de-clutter my house, stick to the laundry schedule (and hang up the clothes!), and simply live life with my children and husband full of love and grace. Truly build relationships with my children that are lasting and deep. Pour myself into them, give them all that I have, not just tidbits left over. I have so much to be thankful for, and as I catch a glimpse of my beautiful, sweet sixteen year old daughter, I'm in awe of what God has done in our family.
May God give us grace as Mother's to be all that we can be. Please take the time to watch this video, it is so powerful!
