What's with Mom-O-Graphy? Well, I'm a Mom, a mom of a teenager. My nickname is Odette where the big O is from! I love stories of daily joys and challenges of mothering from other ordinary moms with an extraordinary God who gives us the strength to do our assignment. I want to share these stories and mine with the great love and faithfulness of the Lord Jesus Christ. He has given us a role to bless the next generation! O-what-a-privilege! O what a great call to celebrate!
This is a place of community to inspire and encourage one another as we nurture the children God has entrusted to our care.
Waking up from my slumber, getting right up again to write and share my story...
A New Beginning...

Mary's Memories
In a few days, we are celebrating the greatest birthday of all, the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ. Just a while ago, I was prompted to revisit this blog which I haven't worked on for quite a while. I started writing again on my other blog, to post meditations in preparation for Christmas. What's resonating to me about this very special season is the two stories of obedience: the obedience of Jesus to the Father and the obedience of Mary to be the instrument of God to be His mother as He took on the human form. Being a mother, as I reflect on Mary's obedience, accepting her role, leads me to my own assignment of motherhood. Mary obeyed wholeheartedly to God's plan and purposes, not only in her life, but the whole human race. Do I have the same heart for what role God has given me as a mom? I want to share my favorite song that inspires me. Just like Mary, God has plans for our children that we don't know. All God wants from us is a wholehearted obedience to God. Please click on the link below (Mary Did You Know) and prayerfully listen and let God lead us first to the love of our Lord Jesus Christ and then to our role as a mother in raising up a new generation that will continue to proclaim the Good News of Christmas...
