parenting

isn't a mother supposed to like her child? instead of going out of her way to make said child feel guilty and worthless? i swear to everything holy, i will do better by my children than is done to me. i swear it.

nine

i am having a difficult time grasping the fact that my firstborn, so sweet she makes my heart ache, so kind and so loving that i want to protect her from the hurts of the world, is nine today. she is joy and sunshine and everything beautiful in the world, and i am so lucky to be her momma.

prayer

help me to be brave and to be kind. and if i can't be brave, i just need to be kind. we belong to each other. help me remember that.
