With eight children ranging from teenagers to parents themselves, Meg is no stranger to the bittersweet and beautiful transitions through motherhood. Throughout her entire journey, she has tried to not lose sight of the fact that God gave her these children to prepare them for adulthood, which means eventually they leave (which is a good thing!). Meg encourages finding accountability, prayer, and mentor groups to help you get through the rough spots and remember you are not alone in this motherhood journey. She discusses the transitions that range from setting all of the rules and providing everything for your children, all while teaching them to set boundaries and help them set up their own rules as they enter adulthood. The biggest thing she’s learned however in her entire motherhood path is that while her job as a mom is important, her most important job is being a child of God.
Jude 1:24 – To him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy
