Sorry... that struck me as so stinkin' funny after the day I've had.

It's much more helpful to see that it is filled with moms who do get angry and regretfully yell at their kids while pursuing gentleness and kindness!
Thank You!

Grace is for mommies too.
It was a real turning point for me allowing my kids to correct me. "Mom , that was rude and uncalled for." allowing them to have that voice I never did.
My 16yo daughter turned to me today and said , "Well that was mean." I realized it was and made amends.
My 19yo daughter's boyfriend startled...no...he scared the beejeebers outta me yesterday. I called him a very unflattering name in the heat of the moment. My daughter said , "MOTHER!! Language...my tender ears are burning here." I didn't apologize for that one
, her boyfriend deserved it.
