No worries

My kids are grown.

I had mine close together.

I stayed home with them and
was blessed to be able to do that.

 The years were sometimes messy

and now it seems as if they flew by.

As I read some blogs

I see a common thread...

mothers questioning

their decisions.

Mothers hoping they are 

doing the "mom thing" right.

Despite my efforts,

my girls are well adjusted,

caring,

smart, successful, 

Christian women.

All are married and 

now two are great mothers. 

I jest obviously. 

I had my shining moments

but I also made  mistakes.

Truly though,

life is a blur.

Do what you can

and don't beat yourself up.

When you are questioning

your parenting skills

refer to this picture

of Annie's first day of kindergarten.

She went half days, only in the afternoon.

Pay close attention to Abbie on the side of the picture.
