Making MIstakes?

November 2nd, 2006

I was terrified of making a mistake in raising our babies.  I read everything I could, talked with other mothers, including my own, and then found out much later, that mistakes are part of growing.  I even found that I didn’t need to feel guilty about the wrong choices or the wrong decisions I’d made.  In fact, around the age of forty, I learned that it was all right to experience failures and that to “blow it” with your children or your mate was pretty routine stuff.

So mom, just relax, do the best you can, and love those babies everyday and it will all come out in the wash.  Ask me, I have four beautiful daughters and they grew up into wonderful women in spite of the mistakes!!
