This is where my heart is. I lack the patience, energy, fortitude, selflessness, organization, loving kindness, and strength to raise my children in the way that I wish I could. But, I have all I need in my Savior to raise them as He would have me. I still can't believe He trusts me enough for this monumental responsibility, but I and eternally grateful for the gift of my children (read: His children) and don't take a single day of it for granted. Even the days when I want to throw someone through a window. Not really. Sort of.
My kind of parenting, for the most part.
