The Little Letters

Journals and notebooks are to be found scattered throughout my house - hiding on bookshelvesor tucked away for safe keeping. And by "safe keeping" I mean... I've been keeping a journalsince I was 10 years old - some stuff is just not meant for the public eye! But my heart is on those pages. So I dub them sacred.


I love the written word - the beautiful lyrics of humanity.


I love it that my history is penned in bound books between parallel lines.Simple words. Nothing ever too fancy - just the raw emotions, memories,and glory days called my life.


My newest collection of writings are ones that I know will be my favoritewhen my hair has turned to silver and my days are consumed with rocking grandbabies to sleep.That is... the letters to my children.

I began writing shortly after we found out we were expecting our first. My journey. Our journey.My "littles" are my life now. My wishes, hopes, dreams, fears, notes, and prayers - along withlittle mementos that mean something to me...
as a wife who is married to a man... who with God conceived and bore two beautifulchildren... children that now make me a mother forever... they are forever in my heart...this heart of a woman who is living out a little piece of heaven on earth...in embracing this holy and awesome vocation her Father has chosen for her.
Yes, it all means something to me. To them. Paradise is playing out before my eyes and I cannothelp but lovingly pen down the whole account. I want to re-live these moments forthe rest of my life.
I write to my little ones. For them. For me. I want them to know and see throughtheir sweet history of existence that nothing happens by chance, miracles still occur,and that there is a God who loves them infinitely more than their earthly father or mothercould ever dream of loving them.
This is part of the legacy I am leaving my children.A legacy of letters from momma.
