This is a great Mom video showing the hard work of moms behind the scenes every day... I like it :)
Of course, it doesn't hurt that it's a commercial for P&G, and well, we have two family members that work for them - Neil's dad and brother :)
The point is that you never know how much the work that you do day in and day out will pay off in the long-run. We have no idea who our children will become - what influence they will have in the world. Whether they become a sport star and have a very high platform to speak from to the multitudes, or whether they are unknown by the masses, yet known to those with whom they will share the Gospel with - or be an example of Christ-like character - in America, or on the mission-field elsewhere....we just never know how us pouring into our kids will someday impact other people.
It's another reminder that my mission field right now - my children - is so vitally important. It isn't just for my kids - it's for everyone that my kids are able to reach as well.
Being a mom is a big job, but the greatest calling in the world.
