I will read this book to pieces

“Remember this: God does not call the equipped; he equips the called. In my experience, God sent the babies first and then followed up with the graces as necessary. God gives us “our daily bread”, the grace we need to live up to our responsibilities one day at at time. You don’t have to have it all figured out and feel ready to handle a gang of kids years ahead of time. If God calls you to have a large family, he will help you to do it … one child at at time.”

I’m finding Danielle’s book a giant exercise in “taking a deep breath and being real.” Amen, amen, amen.
