Yesterday I had some things to take care of at home. It can be so challenging being a Mother sometimes. It just somehow never ends with the worry and concern about your child's well being. As a Mom I know that what affects my children affects me. More than that, it's hard to explain to them things they will never understand until they themselves become parents. My Mom would tell me that I will find out when I become a parent and that not until then will I get it. I used to reply " yah, but I will be a cool Mom". Good thing I'm typing because it's hard to talk with a foot in your mouth! She knew and I didn't. I never want to see my kids suffer, all their pain is mine and more frustrating when there's not a thing I can do but simply just be there and listen. That though is not enough. I want to heal their every wound and take all their problems away. Then I have to say to myself, they would not become adults and responsible people in this society if I take on all their problems. We learn from our mistakes and hopefully grow from them. I would be failing them as a Mother if I try and solve everything they go through. I pray all things will work out for us. Today which would be day 47, I went to the Senior Center to play Bingo! I mostly went just to see them but I ended up playing a few games. I have not been going as much as I would like but that's okay. It's good to miss them so when I do go back it is more special. Everyone is so excited about the St. Patrick's Day Party. I am too! I seem to have almost everything I need. I do need a few more items and then I will be 100% ready. If I forgot anything it's going to have to be alright. There is only so much I can do and, I think I've just about done it all. So, the wait begins...7 days and counting! Then we have the twins 21st Birthday Party on the 20th of March, whew!, this is going to be a busy week. I can't believe my babies are going to be 21!!! It seems like yesterday when I had control! You probably thought I was going to say something else but it's true. I used to be able to dress them and they would actually leave on what I dressed them in! Not today they all have minds and opinions of their own but that is what I love about all 3 of them. peace out, Tina
