I just had to share this moment in my life with the world, mark it somewhere to remember this day.
Today was the day God said, "Yes, Ellen, I love you, forgive you and I am showing you it in the flesh."
My mom and I have gone through a tremendous amount of growing together. It's. been. very.very. good. It's. been. very. very. painful.
I know I've already written about how wonderful she is, but she really is such an angel. Do you know Queen Esther from the book "Esther" (haha!)? My whole life, I have looked up to her. 22 years of my life and I didn't know that very woman was my mother. Seriously, you might think I'm crazy, but my mom is Esther. BEAUTIFUL (I'm not just saying that because she's my mom, she really is gorgeous), WISE, ENDEARING, OBEDIENT, HUMBLE, and PRAYERFUL.
Anyway, what I wanted to remember FOREVER was that God loves me and I knew it ever so clearly today. My mom made me come outside with her to look at the stars till I got dizzy. We circled our driveway a million times while she talked to me. You KNOW I was crying the whole time too! =) Hehe
Sweet mercies fall from Heaven <3
Smile big,
E.H.
