My Friday confession: I’m a helicopter mom. ⁣
⁣
I’ve always heard people talk about helicopter moms and how they don’t do their kids any good by hovering over them. ⁣
⁣
I vowed not to be one. I want strong, independent boys one day. ⁣
⁣
And people who say helicopter moms are all up in the biz will ask, “How can they become independent with a mom who takes an ‘excessive interest in the life of her child?’”⁣
⁣
Yep, you read that right. That’s the real def ... “a mother who takes an overprotective or excessive interest in the life of her child.”⁣
⁣
I am known to:⁣
⁣
1. check grades ALL THE TIME!⁣
⁣
2. Manage their phones (except Brody. He doesn’t get a phone until he’s in middle school). ⁣
⁣
3. Talk to them about their friends and text them while they’re at school. ⁣
⁣
4. Make them go to church. No, I don’t ask my kids if they want to go to church and because they know this they don’t ask to stay home. Why? Because as for me and my house we will serve the Lord. ⁣
⁣
5. If I smell any sort of funk coming off those boys I make them wear deodorant and tell them to change their socks. ⁣
⁣
I love it when they’re home and miss them when they’re gone. So, if you’re a helicopter mom like me, don’t make anyone tell you you’re wrong. ⁣
⁣
We need more parents all up in the biz these days. And even if they don’t admit it, I think our kids like us up close and in the know. ⁣
⁣
Are you a self-professed helicopter mom? Are you ashamed of it? Join the club! ⁣
⁣
This is my Friday confession!⁣

Do you believe in the power of yet?⁣
⁣
My son Brody’s job is to feed the dogs. Last night I told him to fill their bowls. He walked outside and came right back in. ⁣
⁣
“I need you to fill up the container,” he said. ⁣
⁣
This is the part that makes me mad. If I have to go open the bag and fill up the container, I may as well feed the dogs myself. ⁣
⁣
That’s what I told Brody. ⁣
⁣
“Mama! I’m not strong enough to lift the bag ... YET. That’s growth mindset, Mama. I’m not strong enough YET.”⁣
⁣
I had to laugh. ⁣
⁣
Brody is right. Many times we don’t see the power of yet. We give up and wonder if the day will come that we will accomplish what’s in our heart. ⁣
⁣
In order to see what God has promised, we must live out the desire, the goal and the dream knowing that one day, the promise will come to pass. ⁣
⁣
This week on the podcast, Jamie shares how God brought the dream of adopting a child to pass but it took several years to happen. ⁣
⁣
She suggests we live out the promises of God even if we don’t see the fruit of them ... yet. ⁣

I was on vacation for two weeks and gave more lectures and life lessons to my boys than I do when we’re at home. ⁣
⁣
One night, I stood on the balcony looking into the rough seas and wondered if I was failing at motherhood. ⁣
⁣
I sometimes forget that motherhood is a call God placed on my life as soon as my firstborn came into this world. ⁣
⁣
Being a mom is undervalued and overlooked because it comes “easy” to many (not all). No one gets paid to clean up gross stuff off toilet seats and nasties from clothes. ⁣
⁣
So we don’t value the impact motherhood brings. ⁣
⁣
On today’s episode, I have the privilege to introduce my audience to my sister, Jamie. She shares the calling of motherhood on her life, as well as the triumphs and tragedies of motherhood. ⁣
⁣
How do you keep the faith in front of your kids when it’s tested and tried? Jamie will tell you. I’m so glad my sister is my first guest. I know you’ll love her too. ⁣

Today’s Friday confession is for the people who haven’t started on their 2020 goals yet. ⁣
⁣
I’m so happy there are many ambitious people out there, but I haven’t tackled one goal of mine ... and it’s Jan 10th. ⁣
⁣
It doesn’t mean I don’t have goals for this year, but I’ve been on vacation since December 28th and I’m still floating around in the Pacific. ⁣
⁣
The truth is, I don’t chill, relax or take it easy enough. I want to keep my 2020 just like this: knowing things will get done but not working so hard I don’t enjoy life. ⁣
⁣
I’m a firm believer that God will do His part in my life as long as I do mine. He opens and closes doors for me and I have ALWAYS trusted that. ⁣
⁣
So, If you’re chillin’ into 2020 but know you’ll crush those goals this year anyway, here’s a 👊🏻 from me. ⁣
⁣
Don’t let people make you think you’re not off to a great start just because you’re not checking off the to-do list. ⁣
⁣
You’ll get there. Give me a 👊🏻 if you’re with me!⁣
⁣
This is my Friday confession. ⁣

Do you struggle with self-confidence? I can tell you three main reasons why you do:⁣
⁣
1. You place too much emphasis on your own abilities instead of what God can do in your life. ⁣
⁣
2. You compare yourself to others when your standard should be the Lord.⁣
⁣
3. Instead of showing up and trusting in what God can do through you, you hold back because you don’t think you have what it takes. ⁣
⁣
So what do you do now? Listen to episode 5 of Her Faith Inspires and find out how to shake off insecurities and walk in confidence. ⁣
