How To:
Promote the Family in a World that
Thinks it's Unnecessary
This is my conclusion to my blog. I wanted
to end with this topic because I have seen and heard so many examples that
apply to this subject. I found this article online the other day and it really
broke my heart to see that people shun large families. It makes me happy to see
that there are still some people out there who value and promote
families.
I love this girl because she is proud to
be a mother. She loves her family and does not regret any of her children.
Families have been shrinking dramatically in size and now it is uncommon to
have more than three children, but that does
not give strangers, friends,
or family the right to comment on how
many children you should have or how long you should wait between each
one.
My Family
I have been married to my husband, Drew,
for almost seven years and we have one little girl and one little boy. She just turned five and he will be two in a few months. We don't have a
set number of how many children we will have, but we know that we want a large
family. We want our children to have siblings they can grow up with and be
friends and have a support system.
Family is the most important thing to me
and I am so excited for my children to grow up with siblings. I love being a
mom and teaching my children something new every day. I am so grateful to
have the opportunity to be a wife and mother. I look forward to each child
that will join our family whether planned or not. I love watching my husband
with my kids and I can see him soften when he holds and plays with them. I can also see
how much they love their daddy and the wonderful influence he has on them. When they look at me, tell me they love me, and give me a kisses, I remember what family is all about. Family is the most
important thing we have and I want to do all I can to not take mine for
granted.
Final Thought
Let's make sure we make our family our
priority every day. Worry less about what the world thinks, or what your
friends or neighbors think about how you raise your family or how many
kids you choose to have. Family is a personal decision and one that only you and
your spouse should make.
