A substitute for motherhood

I have often wondered why motherhood was not in God's plan for me. I, like most women, always thought I would someday be a wife and mother. I waited a long time to be a wife but I now know why I had to be patient about that. I have been blessed, however, with a wonderful substitute for motherhood---that is being the aunt of 2 wonderful kids. My only niece and nephew are twins and they equate to having 2 kids of my own. I have been very involved in their lives since they were born 17 1/2 years ago and that is such a blessing to me. They are so special to me and I love them like they were my own. Thank you God for Levi and Lindsey and the wonderful opportunity to be part of their lives.
