Last year, on Mother's Day, the girls organized a surprise get-together for me. It was very special and meant alot to me to have my children all together and with me on that special day of the year. As it turned out, DH had just resigned from the pastorate of the Buffalo Baptist Church the week before, so it would be the last Mother's Day we would celebrate together in West Virginia. This year, in North Carolina, no children were able to be with me. But each of them contacted me by sending cards, gifts or making a phone call, or both!
Life is just that way sometimes, isn't it? When the kids are grown and living their lives in different parts of the country, you just can't always get together when you want to. Especially being in the Lord's work, which is the priority of a pastor. And even more so when it is his bread and butter! But, you know what? I wouldn't trade occupations for anything! I love being a pastor's wife (a stay-at-home pastor's wife, especially!). Every day is different! Every day there is a blessing to be found!
