And then there are our teammates, our family and friends that lift us up and that have our backs. We are running towards the "end" zone. For what? The goal. I don't want to have a game face, I want to be transparent. I don't want to run towards the goal...
I want to mosey on over. I want to be real and true to myself and others. To be able to share who I am... To say I am a Mom that still watches and waits as her 13 year old son actually walks through the door of his school each morning and that most mornings I still weep as I drive away, knowing he is not my baby anymore. To share that I am a Mom who wants her kids to live at home during college. That I pray over them every night that God would reveal to them His will and that they would heed to His call. That I adore them beyond anything I could have ever imagined. That even on the days when I think I can not do it all, they are the ones who make me believe that I can. That I have so many fears even though I know God can and will work it all out. That I have missed my husband so much that some days it is litteraly difficult to breathe. That I haven't seen my sisters in six years and I know I have let them down more than I can even think about. That I have had such a big place in my heart for single Moms since my hubby has been away. That I am not as strong as people think. That in fear, I agonized over starting my blog and then my heart dropped when I wrote my first post, and I knew I was hooked. That I really want people to share with me their own stories, through this blog.That I feel selfish even taking the time to write because it is something just for me. Everyday is game day....We show up, suit up and hopefully play our hearts out.
