Celebrating Mom

Your birthday, an anniversary, Mother’s Day–these days can be a complicated combination of expectation, anticipation, joy, and delight, often mixed with disappointment and resentment when what we’ve imagined is a far cry from what the day delivers. Annie and Jolly share their experiences with this familiar cycle by discussing some occasions where they were left deflated after a special day. They also share what they have learned over the years that has allowed for their depth of understanding to flourish with freedom from resentment on these high-stakes holidays. Joy is found in Christ’s mighty call, allowing for these special days with children to be fulfilling and abundant!
