Parenting

I was walking through target and heard a woman yelling at her teenage son using profanity, disrespectful words, and ugly tones. I walked around the isle to look at her son wanting to tell him he did not deserve to be spoken to like that no matter what it was he did wrong.

How weighing is the burden of parenting and how special. It feels like a chance and a trial. I know I will make a terrible mess of mistakes but somewhere is the reassurance that God uses love to cover a multitude of sins.

I feel so blessed to be given this opportunity to be able to love, know, and care for you. Suddenly I am conscious of what I am putting in my mouth. The nausea is still here but much better. When I felt so sick I was just worried about getting something anything in my belly and now I feel I gave you something unhealthy to eat if I eat chips and not something more nutritious. I want to give you all that you deserve the best of everything.
