How many of us have gotten caught up in this very thing. We are not good enough as parents and continually see our failures. I read this and was reminded that I have incredible children. Are they perfect, NO! Am I perfect NO! But they are amazing children. My Mother in law was so gracious to watch them for me while I was working the other day, did I mention when I go to work that I have a tendency to never know when I will be done. So a whoping 3 hours later I came to get them. While they where there my oldest two helped Grandma with a chore. Her comment truly ment a lot to me. She told me that my darlings are great workers. I knew that deep down, but I am the one who is continually fighting them to clean up this and clean up that. They I forget do, do it. I could go on and on about why each child is GREAT, but really I want all of you to look at your own kiddos and see what good you have created. You are their first teacher. The one's teachings they will look to when they are facing tough things as school or life in general. YOU are their MOTHER or FATHER. They loved you even when you where tough on them. And forgave you when you made a mistake. Look and them. See the BRILLIANT people they are. Your may find that you are less scared of what they may become.... And see truly what they can become...
