I received a text last night a little after midnight, but was already asleep. It was from my Mom. I had forgotten to turn my alarm off on my phone for my walking time during the week of 5:30am. So when I went to go turn it off, it's then I realized I had some texts.
My Mom is finishing up reading the Redemption Series by the christian fiction author Karen Kingsbury. I got her hooked on her books after I said she must start reading them because I knew she'd love them. The whole Redemption Series is based around the Baxter family.
So this is the text she sent me:
"Just finished Reunion (the last book in the series) and found myself sobbing! I just wanted you to know how much I love you! We are the Baxter's my dear and redemption is our family's story too (just know our family has been through a whole lot and have experienced some redemption of our own)...We still have many chapters to experience...and many include you and the husband that has been choosen for you. Keep a prayerful heart and ask for his will to be done. I learned that from Elizabeth Baxter (the Mom in the book). Good night precious."
That's me speaking in the parenthesis.
So here I am crying at 5:30 in the morning. What can I say, we're a family of criers, ha!!
This woman speaks such life into me!!! Therefore, just proves my point that I have the best mother in the world.
Happy Saturday!!

I loved Karen's books. I finally had to stop reading them because I would stay up all night. They are so good!
I've never read these books! What a blessing your mom is to text you so early in the morning and love on you!

Karen Kingsbury's books are amazing! The entire Baxter Series are the best I've ever read. I think the "R" series was my favorite!!
