The Desire of My Heart

Years ago my husband and I could not agree about having a third child. We fought, I cried, we prayed, went to counseling, I cried some more.

My husband argued that we already had a healthy boy and girl. I argued that since we started our family when we were so young, and I love being a mom so much, that soon enough the big kids would be grown and gone and I would be left at home sad, with no kids, while he would be off doing what he feels called to do.

Tonight I’m experiencing that coming full circle. My husband spent the past two days golfing and traveling for business. Hailey is away at college. Noah is busy with varsity football and is a social butterfly so I rarely see him.

So tonight, it was me and CJ. We had a healthy meal together. She busted out her homework and got in a little bike ride. She showered and then played the piano for me. We talked and I put her to bed praising God for His faithfulness in answering my prayer, changing the heart of my husband and giving me the desire of my heart
