If my kids and I got thru the day, I consider it successful. The words from your "friend" seem to be a reflection on how he/she feels about themselves, because clearly you are one of the best moms I know. I am always impressed by how you handle your children. <br />http://media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/8a/64/dc/8a64dcfde91a58f544725670d785fc1c.jpgLaureleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01408472772102052341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-544841714052873855.post-58959958325487047272014-05-08T13:01:46.723-06:002014-05-08T13:01:46.723-06:00Hi Bonnie!

What friend would say something like that, especially to one of the best mothers on the planet? Kudos for realizing that there are different mothering styles and personalities, just like there are different people. I'm with you on the no-bed-time-routine thing. By bedtime, I'm ready for them to GO TO BED. DO NOT PASS GO. DO NOT COLLECT ANY MORE MOM TIME! You probably inherited that from me. My guilt trip was PTA. I abhor all PTA work. I finally felt guilty enough to be a PTA officer one year, thinking I'd get a "testimony" of its value. No luck. I hated it more at the end of that year than the beginning. Different strokes for different folks.

We fall into so many traps when ...Ha! Amen, Suzie! <br />We fall into so many traps when we compare ourselves with others. And it is so important to see the good things we do because the world focuses on all the things we do wrong. Who can live under that pressure?! I love your description of the beach ball. So like dealing with depression. I get it.MyDonkeySixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07861397951491678059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-544841714052873855.post-11336485641794408772014-05-01T15:21:16.458-06:002014-05-01T15:21:16.458-06:00Whoever said you were a bad mother, obviously neve...Whoever said you were a bad mother, obviously never met me. If she did, she would compare you to me and see that you are light years ahead of me in mothering skills!<br /><br />I declare your friend an idiot and completely unobservant.Suzanne Lucashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07129772885673695447noreply@blogger.com
