joy is prayer, joy is strength

Joy is prayer - Joy is strength - Joy is love - Joy is a net of love by which you can catch souls.
~Mother Teresa

Above all, I want my littles to be kind, God-loving, giving individuals who always look for the silver lining. I want them to love with their whole hearts and to find joy in the little things.

And even as I...we...are trying to teach them these things, they are teaching us so much more in return. I love how truly happy they are and I pray when they look back on their childhoods, big fat smiles sneak up on their sweet faces.
