Wynken, Blynken and Nod

Wynken, Blynken and Nod were three little ones who set out in a wooden shoe boat to catch fish from a beautiful sea. The nursery rhyme was originally titled, "Dutch Lullaby" and was written by Eugene Field. It is a beautiful poem and a tribute to the three beautiful children I never thought I would have. I like to say I was "barren but not forgotten." In the days and weeks to come I will share my story as well as those of seven other women who found the Lord had not forgotten them nor their desires to have children. I will also share the thoughts, dreams, fears and laughs I experience daily as a stay-at-home mother of three as well as include recipes, craft ideas and any other thing I have found useful or encouraging in my quest to be the mom God intended me to be. So, forget the dishes, tune out the cartoons and catch up on the laundry later...or stop crying, put down the ovulation testing kits, and hold tight, God hasn't forgotten you either!
