I’m just really thankful to be a mom. I always thought I would be one, and I’m very grateful that turned out to be a path that was available to me. I love my kids, and I love helping them figure out who they are. I get frustrated or teary or confused or angry sometimes, and we’ve had some tough parenting struggles, but I can confidently say that every day of their lives, no matter what I have still felt joy in being their mom. And I’m so thankful to have them here in my house with me, every day! Almost 16 years of kids in the house so far, and really only about 10 years left… assuming they all move out when they finish high school. Phew does that mean we’re over the hill? That’s a little bit frightening. Look, I’ve done my best, kids. lol

Mothering is complex - but so worth the effort! It is a special joy to watch your own children be excellent mothers too.
