Life is short
People are fragile
Handle with care

This is a house where children live

Fingerprints smeared on the glass

When I get tired I try to remember

These years will be gone in a flash


Little fingers under bathroom doors

Art work hangs on the fridge

Mountains of laundry, tripping on toys

This is a house where children live

Midnight feedings and diaper changes

I can make it better when you cry

Right now I can protect you

And I can answer all your "why's"

When I look up to the stars in the sky
I begin to feel quite small
I'm so amazed by Your love
How I could even matter at all

This was written about ten years ago as I was going through a divorce and facing the challenges of being a single mother to my young son, not even two years old at the time.

You make me better than I am

You make me want to try

Your eyes so full of wonder

Make me wonder why

I'm weary of my own complaints
I know I'm getting in Your way
My pride, my fear, they shake my faith
I need to trust, receive Your grace

Lord, I’m crying out

I beg you to hear my plea

I’m struggling with who I am

And your dreams for me

She was staring out the window

Thinking ‘bout the life she’s led

Wondering if she can face

The things that lie ahead

When I was a little girl
You'd bounce me on your knee
You'd tell me I was pretty
And I always tried to please
