Parenting - the open wound

Whether I look back to my own childhood and wish mothering would have been different or look at my children and wish at times my mothering was different, more patient, more enlightened, I now know - just a little bit - that I cannot grow and my children cannot grow with out suffering in some form. And this has made the most sense to me than any other advice. Instead of asking why did she leave me?... I know I am a good mother, a great mother because she did.

loving you more today mom
