A letter to my children.
You drive me crazy!
You're full of energy that my 'old body' can't keep up with. You can eat and eat and eat and not have to worry about the extra roll you'll gain around your waistline. You always make me think "when I was your age" and then remember that I hated hearing my parents say that. Then make me realize that yes, I am just like them and yes, they were right. You make me understand that what I say and how I say it may not always be the right thing because you will seem to always repeat me word for word. Attitude included. You get things that you want just because while I'll put off things I need.
You make me a better person. I cannot imagine a day without your smiles, giggles, hugs and kisses. There are days when I want to pull my hair out and all I seem to do is say 'NO', days when I just don't seem to know what to do anymore. And then you smile, that's all it takes. You are my reason for living, the one thing I've done right. I may not be the best parent all of the time, just remember......I'm learning. Every day is a different lesson and you are my teacher. We'll get through this together.....one day at a time. And someday , you'll look back and say, "I remember when"....and I'll get to laugh at you. ;)
