Michelle! My name is Lauren Steed, and I am Annemarie's (from JoAnn Fabrics) daughter. She told me about you and about your blog, so I hope you don't mind that I'm reading it. First of all, I LOVE your blog (and please feel free to read and follow my family's blog as well), and I'm so inspired by your family's story. Your boys are unbelievably adorable, and your story is testimony to our Lord's mercy. I pray that God will continue to bless you and your boys!
That's me...one blessed mama to the 5 sweetest and most handsome BOYS (a 5-year-old and 18-month old quadruplets)..yes 5 boys 5 and under (I only get to say that for a few more months!) Wife to the man God made just for me (and me for him). God gifted us these five little men and I rely on him always through this journey. I hold hands and hearts, create home, and through His grace, my will, and my family's love, I live for and in this moment.
TAKE HEART WORDS
People are often unreasonable, illogical,
and self-centered;
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, People may accuse you
of selfish, ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some
false friends and some true enemies;
Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and frank,
people may cheat you;
Be honest and frank anyway.
What you spend years building, someone could
destroy overnight;
Build anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness,
they may be jealous;
Be happy anyway.
The good you do today,
people will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have,
and it may never be enough;
Give the world the best you've got anyway.
You see, in the final analysis,
it is between you and God;
It was never between you and them anyway
- Mother Theresa
