I am a momma of four little ones. Four little live I am a momma of four little ones. Four little lives look to me for comfort, direction & love. It’s the most magical calling. My days are filled with play & discovery & my nights are filled with feedings, reassurances & sleeplessness. I have struggled so much with balance in this season. Is the work/motherhood balance ever perfect ? (Asking for a friend 🙋🏻‍♀️). One thing raising four little kiddos ages 3 & under has taught me is that it all goes by waaaaay to quickly. This season won’t last forever. It won’t be long before Judah starts grade school & Lina starts to walk. Before I know it ,our foster son will be joining a sports team & our foster daughter will crawling. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The most meaningful moments are found in what seems to be the most mundane.  Knowing my kids, loving them & growing with them means I must forsake all else & just be with them. To me, that’s what matters most about being a mommy. Letting go of expectations, people pleasing & perfection is the key. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I love this season. It’s grown me leaps & bounds. It is such an honor. It’s a joy to be called “mommy”. I have incredible women who have raised me & walked along side me throughout my life. I am so grateful for each of them & all they have taught me. I’m grateful for my foster children’s birth mom. She’s such a beautiful human ! I’m in awe of the moms that I get to do life with & they ways they love their families.  Motherhood is hard & wonderful, selfless & humbling. I have never been more grateful for this little life 🤍
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And to the women yearning to be mommas, I see you. I have been in your shoes. Your yearning is not in vain. And to the ladies broken by their lack of a mother, I love you. You are not alone 🤍
Yesterday was all kinds of wonderful. 🌸✨🌿🍾

These last two weeks have held so much for our little family. One day I will share all that has happened & I will ooo and ahh over the ways the Lord has been ever faithful. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But for now, I will say this: God is gracious & kind. Our family is thrilled to welcome our foster son’s littlest sister into our home. This sweet baby was born one week ago today. I got to be in the delivery room with her momma & cheer her on as she brought this precious baby into the world. She’s so lovely. She looks just like her brother did when he was first born ! The resemblance is breathtaking. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Our family is so grateful for these birth parents, for this new life & that our journey with them gets to continue. Foster care is hard, but it is beautiful. I will never stop praising Jesus for asking us to trust him in this way. It has been one of our greatest journeys.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And in case you’re doing the math, we have four kids, three and under (3, 13 months, 9 months & a newborn) living under one roof 😉

Karley has been by my side for twenty years. Countless sleepovers, memories & adventures have been woven together to create our sweet friendship. She is the first to pack a bag & be on a plane before you can even ask where she’s going. She’s a snuggle bug, a deep feeler & has the most beautiful appreciation for meaningful things. I love that about her. She has a zeal for whimsy & loves to experience the fullness of life.

Then came Matthew, the kind, well grounded man who swept her off of her feet. Matthew is hospitable, thoughtful, warm & fun. He’s the first to hug you & feed you, offering you company & conversation as you sit at his table.

When Karley fell in love with Matthew, all of her friends did too because he let Karley be exactly who she was, & somehow she became better.

Their friendship has blessed Dave & I so much. I am thrilled to celebrate this season of engagement with them. Soon & very soon these two will be married. You better believe I’ll be laughing & crying that whole entire day !! #annafillybrides
