This morning I woke up with some young mothers on my heart. Any one with little ones is young! The tune from “The King and I”- “Hello Young Lovers” came to me. Allow me to rewrite the lyrics for you today.


Hello young mothers, whoever you are,
I hope your troubles are few.
All my good wishes go with you today
I've been a Mom like you.

Be brave, young mothers, and follow your star,
Be brave and faithful and true,
Cling very close to your children today
I've been a Mom like you.

I know how it feels to have fussing all day,
And to fly down the street after the dog!.
I used fabric diapers that hung on my cupboards
as the rain poured outside in the fog.

Don't cry young mothers, at least not all day
Don't cry because you’re not alone;
All of your memories will be precious to you,
I've had some kids of my own.
I've had days that were too much, like yours-
I've had some kids of my own.

Jesus loves moms of all the little children in the world……………..
