Mothered and Mothering
/
Peony from Autumn’s garden
Happy Mother’s Day!
Being mothered is a universal experience and an incredibly beautiful life long process.
Although my mother, Patricia McKenzie, passed six years ago, her love, guidance, and prayers still influence my life. Stepping into the role of raising four children has radically changed my perspective on life and continually increases my appreciation for her as my mother (and as a mother to six).
I am grateful for the women that God has placed in my life to mother me along the way, especially now in the wake of my mom’s passing. God is intentional. It is out of the abundance of His love for me through others that compels me.
Being a mother is blessing! I am grateful for the four children in my care. Mothering is a beautiful experience and it shapes me while I shape others. What an extraordinary design!
Additionally, I love my mom friends. We get to share stories of mothering and being mothered by text, phone, and get togethers.
What a rich and rewarding experience this is! Whether you are called mom, aunt, sister, or friend, much love to the women who intentionally mother!
Being mothered is a universal experience. It is a life long process.
I am grateful for all those who have touched my life and continue to invest in me in this way. God is intentional.. It is out of the abundance of His love through others that compels me.
