This Is A Great Song If Your Young Children Are All Grown Up Now Or Even If You Have A Child That Went To Heaven To Be With Jesus

I heard this song on the radio and it so touched my heart. So often I see a mother with her young children in a store or other places and for an instant and moment in time I think back to when my children were that age. Then my next train of thought is that I wish they were still young and I could take care of them again. Children grow up and then start to fulfill the destiny that God has set aside just for them. Part of me wants them to be little again so I can nurture and take care of them. I am then torn because I know that cannot be and that would be selfish of me to keep them young forever just for my own nurturing instincts to kick in again. I know in reality that it is time for them to grow up and experience what God has in store for their lives.
I think that just comes natural to a mother that loves being a mother. Does that make sense. If you are not taking care of your children you then reach out to others. If you are married hopefully you have been taking care of and loving your spouse all along through the growing process of your children right? If you  have neglected your spouse for 20 some years while the children were growing up then what will you have in the form of a relationship with your spouse when the children grow up and move out on their own? Please do not let it get so far gone that you just take care of your children and neglect the needs, desires, and the love of your spouse. If you do what will you have to talk about or share together once that happens. It is so important to take the time to have date nights with your spouse and there is nothing wrong with taking a vacation together and not taking the children along. Not every vacation should be like that, of course, there should be family vacations too. You need to keep the love growing even stronger as a couple even though you have children. Remember, one day they will be out of the house and it will be just the two of you and it could be a very long and boring amount of time left in both of your lives if you let the raising of the children take away form your relationship as a couple.
It is suppose to be fun and even adventurous when that time comes. Before it is too late, if you have been neglecting your spouse and using the excuse that the children take up too much of your time stop that right now. Think before you so easily use that excuse. Turn it around while there still is time.
