Kids, Blessed Kids

I am sitting here at work finally catching up on all the blogs I like to follow. An amazing number of them are of kids; cute, beautiful, messy kids. A little ironic as I'm sitting at work. I have the men walking by, who have sworn off all association with kids, seeing me looking at these pictures of all these kids. These are the men who will look at this with a look in their face that says you poor, stupid girl. It just makes me wonder, how did we get to this point? How did we get to the point where there is such a cavern between how we feel about kids? Where is this cavern going to lead us?

It is times like these that I sure am grateful that I can get hard-headed and stubborn when I want something that's important to me. Otherwise I would have been bullied right out of the best stuff in life. Being a mom and spending time with my family. I don't care that it's the hardest thing in the world to do. I don't care that it is the ultimate sacrifice of all the fun stuff in the world. I am grateful for all of it.
