Little World

I'm here again in this little world. This little world in the big white house. The big white house that all the girls hate to be in, but here they find freedom in the rules. Funny how that works. By teaching discipline and guidelines, we are releasing them, giving them the power to fly to where their dreams take them, one by one. One day each of them will look back and be thankful for this little world that they were a part of. This little world of sleeping souls, each one silent, sweet, and occasional mutter, or movement. The only life is myself, doing what needs to be done to protect and prepare for the coming day. Its lonely here at night. The thought sometimes crosses my mind to wake one of them to keep me company, then I think of the other women that must deal with crankiness tomorrow, nah, I will leave them sleep. To be refreshed, so when morning comes and they all grab thier bags and head off to school, they will be able to face the day rested. Lord bless this little world please. Please let your peace reign here, tonight, tomorrow, and the days to come. IJN

  1. You sound like the Prov. 31 woman that does not let her lamp go out at night. You are truly a Godly Woman, watching over the children that God has given you for a time. May you be at peace in your nights of loneliness as you are doing God's work.

  2. I am so proud of you Sarah, my friend, and so thankful for how God is going to use you and grow you there in the little world. You're in my prayers--call if you should ever get really lonely!
