Mother's Day

I am not a terrible parent. but I am also not a great parent.  On this eve of Mother's Day, one of my children reminded me that he isn't perfect either.  My  experience of being a parent is that it isn't all that I had hoped it would be.  I love my children deeply and intensely.  Nobody involved in my family, and I think all families, are perfect.  We could do with getting over any such notions.

My 'sister in the Lord' Nanci shared this blog post with me, which is worth the read: http://networkedblogs.com/xw3Nd

So to all the imperfect Moms:  thank you for being fragile, vulnerable and for pouring your life into us kids.

Thank you to all of God's agents in my life: to the many 'Mom's that have loved me.
