let the children play is one of my favorite new blogs.

"Motherhood is about raising and celebrating the child you have, not the child you thought you would have. It's about understanding that he is exactly the person he is supposed to be. And that, if you're lucky, he just might be the teacher that turns you into the person you are supposed to be." 

Mama, Do You Like Your Children?

"Children are a gift from the Lord;
they are a reward from him.

He will not be put to shame when he
confronts his accusers at the city gates."
