Let’s Skip to the Good Part

As an entrepreneur, I LOVE starting things. I love the beginning stages of dreaming and then chasing full speed ahead until I see that little seed of a dream come to life. Starting a business is often like motherhood. The dream stage starts as a little seed of an idea. After a lot of watering and waiting, that idea has grown into something quite beautiful.

For me, there are so many parallels between the stages of my babies to the stage of my new venture. Both my girls and this idea have been birthed out into the world. And they all need my love, care, and attention to continue to grow and blossom into who they were made to be.

Now that Mama Grateful is in the hands of some incredible mamas, it’s time to spread the word, get it into more mama’s hands, and watch it grow. As with motherhood, there’s a level of control we can have and then there’s a lot we can’t. That’s where surrender comes in. And it’s not an easy thing to do. I often want to skip to the good part. But it’s in the wrestling, the waiting, and the daily maintaining that proves to be the most powerful—often for our character than anything else.

As I surrender and open my hands to what God has in store for this venture, my biggest prayer and hope is that it will bless as many moms as it can along the way . . . and I hope you’re one of them.
