i am becoming my mother.

seriously. i am. today i found myself laying in my bed, propped up by pillows, with a full cup of tea resting on my tummy, reading the bible. that is how i've seen my mommy every morning since the beginning of time. it made me laugh.


it's not just that, either. i've been eating whole wheat toast, and fruits and veggies. i've been drinking tea like it's nobody's business. i've been walking a lot, i've been cooking and cleaning and doing laundry. i've been using all the little tricks that she taught me like sprinkling clothes with water and then blow drying them, when i don't have an iron. i've even been hosting prayer meetings.

hmm. that's really cool. there isn't another person who i'd rather imitate. my mommy is the best mommy in the entire world; she loves the Lord, she meets with him every morning, she has a pasison for prayer, she uses the gifts that God has given her, she lives as an instrument of Christ in the world, she's a wonderful wife and the BEST mom, she keeps our house in a very orderly state (as evidenced by her present absence....), and she is, quite simply, worth imitating.

sigh... but i have a long way to go.....

anyways, i am missing her tons and tons right now.... i just wanna sit and talk with my most favorite person in the universe!

oh, and if you read this, my beloved and far-away mummy, come home soon!
