Love Well

Someone recently asked me what I most hoped to teach my children.

There are so many things, aren’t there? How to pull a baby lamb and saddle a horse and water ski. How to pick up after themselves (soon please!!), be winners, and have the confidence to speak to a crowd. How to spot someone hurting and make a perfect pancake and appreciate green chile.

But at the end of the day, the answer for me is simple.

I hope I teach them to love well. Jesus. Themselves. Each other. Everyone else.

Lord, may it be so.
