that I was the perfect mom, that I never yelled, I never lost my patience, I never got upset when there was a mess...

I wish ....
that I was a perfect person, that I never lost my cool, that I always knew the right answer, that I never made a mistake....
but I am not
I wish...
that I had always been patient, always relaxed, always calm, always smart,

I wish....
that I loved you the best, that I cared the most, that I was always there for you ....
but I WAS......
and always will be.
Know that I did my best, with the resources that I had, in that moment of time, on that particular day.... I always did my best.... it was all that I had to give on that day.
And I will keep trying to be the best, to be better than yesterday, until the day I die, for you my kids.

ReplyDeletethanks Sally.... I truly believe that alll Mom's need to be totally honest... those mom's who pretend to be perfect and do not tell the truth as how difficult it is to be a mom... drive me crazy.
