I'm excited to introduce you to Megan O'Bryant. She is a beautiful mom to Rhys (31/2 years old) and Molli (16 months). She and her husband Titus are great friends of mine. They have been living in Texas for the last few years while Titus completes his seminary degree. I know you will learn a lot from Megan's interview!
*What are your favorite activities with your children?
Reading, singing/dancing, watching the imaginative play that they come up with on their own.
*What are YOUR personal hobbies?
Reading - when I have time for it. Honestly, I don't have time (or energy) for anything else!
*What have you found to be the most rewarding aspect of mothering?
Feeling those little arms wrapped around my neck, a kiss on my cheek, and that little unmistakable child voice saying, "I love you". Watching them become "little people" with personalities, thoughts and reactions.
I love to watch them discover the world. At Molli's age, especially, every day is a new adventure to be faced with such excitement. The smallest things are found to be absolutely amazing!
*What have you found to be the most challenging aspect of mothering?
Remaining patient and being consistent, and accepting the lack of "me time" that comes with mommyhood. I mean, really can I PLEASE go to the bathroom by myself this time?
*What advice would you like to share with other moms?
Enjoy every moment - even those seemingly endless night feedings because it actually passes so quickly. It seems like yesterday that Rhys was born, and now he can carry on a conversation with complete paragraphs. They are only those itty bitty babies for a short period of time. Love 'em and hold 'em!
*How do you find time to cultivate your own personal relationship with the Lord?
As I go through my day, I find myself talking to God and asking for help and wisdom to care for these children that He has given to me.
I don't know about you, but Megan really encouraged me to cherish this sweet time with my little guy! It will pass SO quickly! Thanks so much, Megan for your challenging words!
