As Good as Gold


What's good as gold for me is my family.
They are what keeps me going. I'm sure
every newlywed can relate to walking into
a new home for the first time and thinking
"what did I get myself into?!" The first year my husband and I were our own little family.

My new life away from my mom didn't hit me that hard until I held my firstborn child 22 years ago. When I held that helpless little baby who was cooing ever so softly and had her eyes on me, I melted. To think that God had entrusted this little person into my care was such an awesome feeling. I wasn't sure I could do it. But 2 children later and 23 years of
marriage, I believe I did something right.

It has been hard, but worth it. They are as good (better) than gold for me.
