A night with Noelle

Every night
it's Noelle's mother's job
to put Noelle down to sleep.
(of course a big part has to do with
that Noelle only wants mommy...)

Mama will read her either "Sweet dream Mimi"
or "Otto goes to sleep".
Depending on Noelle's mood.

If she's in a good mood,
sometimes we'd read Bible together too.
But a lot of time she just end up tearing the pages
so I'm reserveing that for when she grows up a little.

We'd pray afterwards
(basically I pray and she'd look around
and waiting for me to say, "in Jesus' name we pray"
then she'd "ah...." with me while I amen)

After I put Noelle down,
she loves for me to hold her hand
while her little musical is playing songs.

It's at that time that I feel
that everything is worth it.
That my existance becomes just that much more meaningful
because I am so needed.

A lot of time we'd just blink at each other
(hard to talk with her paci in her mouth sigh...)
and I'd pray inside and give thanks to
this wonderful gift that God has given me.
I'd whisper,
"Remember why you're put here on earth
remember who you belong to
and who you must serve,
when you place your life in Jesus
He'll richly bless you
He'll guide you through everything
and most important of all,
you will then learn the sweet love
that you can only experience
knowing Him..."

I'd then say goodnight and leave her toss and turn a little
knowing I'd be so happy
going into her room again
next morning.

Man... Joy, you write so well!

This article fully describes the love and the fullness you have

for Noelle!

It brings tears to my eyes that we can love our children so much

because God has loved us, each one of us first....

I am thankful because He has given me a treasure to cherish in

this limited life time.



Thanks for sharing!

三百六十五行中, 沒有這一行

沒有薪水, 還要自己掏錢補貼

一個星期工作七天二十四小時, 沒有年假, 終身不能退休

隨傳隨到, 遇到特殊情況, 工作到三更半夜, 也在所不辭

雖然如此辛苦, 但做這行的人, 通常都是甘之如飴

--- 這種不平凡的職業, 就叫做媽媽!

Happy Mother's Day, Mom!!!

親愛的小小媽咪

獻上遲來的母親節祝福

願神賜妳豐豐富富的恩典在生命中!

GratefulMom  | 16/05/2006 03:52:37



沒錯 要睡覺就是會找媽媽

回到家的時候 JODI第一個找爸爸

真是很嫉妒 *。*

但只要是餓了想睡了

卻不要爸爸要媽媽 呵

所以說mom are very important, we have more responsibility for them ^___^

be strong and be patient lo!!
