Commentary

The day after Charlie Kirk’s death, journalist Megyn Kelly replayed something Charlie once said on a George Janko podcast: “Everyone is called to something different in the body of Christ ...”

Hearing him say that, made me realize that being a full-time mom had been my calling, and I am thankful to have fulfilled it.
Now, with my living children grown and flown, I would like to share a bit of what being a mother meant to me; and in the spirit of Charlie Kirk, encourage any married couple thinking of having children to go for it. It is the hardest and best job you'll ever love.
