Mothering Goals

 

Thank you to Mark it with a Q for the bowties that my boys love to wear to church!

This mothering thing is hard. And the words, ' you are lucky you are cute' come out of my mouth at least 100 times a day. I let little things get to me. And I let the supposedly-cute things become annoying.

But that doesn't mean I don't love being a mother. That doesn't mean I can't keep trying everyday to be a better mom, a better listener and a better playmate.

My goal lately has been to say 'Yes' more to my boys. To sing along with their broken record song, and to get down on their level and play, sympathize and laugh more.

This mothering this is hard- yes, but nothing in this world is worth it, if its not hard.
