Time for Five Minute Friday. I am linking up with Tales from a Gypsy Mama. Today our word is REMEMBER.
GO
Remember, Remember, what do I remember? What will my daughter remember?
Will she remember sparkling floors and oven aromas? Or will she remember super snuggles and goofy play sessions? Will it be quick, biting words or gentle, patience gently guiding?
I am scared thinking about what my daughter will one day look back on, her memories of me.
I want her days to be sun filled warmth, giggles, and wet kisses, but fear that one short moment will stick tough like glue instead.
All I can do is pray knees sore hands clenched that my love will seep through; that HIS love seeps through my messy love to make it TRUE LOVE.
That above all else, she REMEMBERS Him first, second, always.
STOP
Oh, yes! May they remember Him first, and always. Loved this.
