The last thing my kids hear from me every day.

I’m one of those people that thinks about this all the time. I think “if something happened to me, what would my kids remember”. Or if something happened to my husband, what was the last thing I said. Those songs like, “If tomorrow never comes” by Garth Brooks, and “Live like you were dying” by Tim McGraw. So everyday I hug and kiss my kids. I tell them how special they are. I tell them that I’m so lucky to be their mom. Then as they are walking away we have a little tradition. I shout, “Do you stand for truth?” then they shout “YES”. Then I say, “Do you stand for right?” then they say “YES”. Then we sing “The Lord can depend on me”.  I always feel a little better when I shut the door and send them off to other adults to take care of my most precious little people. Maybe it doesn’t help them at all…. but I know it helps me.
