Hi, what a great post!! And I also have to say that even though I don't know you very well, you are an awesome mom. I can tell how much you love your kids when I see you interacting with them. Have a great week.

And this is why you are so awesome. Loved this post on so many levels. Thank you for the reminder :) Hope you had a lovely mother's day.

2008-05-12T22:42:00.000-04:00

I feel like that, too. I may never be the mother I wish I could be, but I try, and my kids know I try. Part of me felt guilty for enjoying Mother's Day, because God knows I'm not perfect and I've been downright selfish at times. But the love on those kids' faces told me I'm doing pretty good, perfect or no.

Perfect.That is all.

2008-05-12T22:39:00.000-04:00

Perfect.

That is all.

2008-05-12T21:07:00.000-04:00

Beautiful post. And the story about the ex's mother? Unbelievable. Unfortunately, I can believe the spaghetti story, since I've known cooks who were that scary.

What great thoughts! Thank you somuch for sharing ...

2008-05-12T21:05:00.000-04:00

What great thoughts! Thank you somuch for sharing - I feel the same way about my daughter, lots! Thankfully God's grace IS sufficient for our every need. I certainly need all the grace He give me.

2008-05-12T19:38:00.000-04:00

Wow, what a deep post. Far too often I don't think about stuff like what you brought it up because it depresses me too much. But you're right and I need to be praying for all those neglected, abused kids out there...far too many.

On another note, I yell and get impatient too and I too wish I didn't. We are a work in progress...I pray everyday for God to make me into the person He wants me to be. But like Paul said, we forget what is behind and press towards what is ahead and we won't reach the goal until we are home with Jesus.

Be well, Jenni. Sniz

SHEESH! What a beast! (The ex-MIL) Hey, I think the very fact that you notice what makes a good mother and what doesn't, and sincerely try to better yourself is what makes you a good mother. No matter what our personal capability level is, we are great mothers because we love deeply and because we keep trying.

I think you should remember that for all the thing...

2008-05-12T16:05:00.000-04:00

I think you should remember that for all the things you as a mom "forget" or "fail" at, your kids are going to remember that you were there to play with their hair and be a stand in for the little girl across the street. Having never met you, I can say for certain that you are a great mom and many would aspire to your heights.

Great post, very honest. (:

This really made me cry because I feel this often....

2008-05-12T16:01:00.000-04:00

This really made me cry because I feel this often. Thinking of all the children who are alone in this world is absolutely heartbreaking. Devastating. And even though my boys are not alone, I so desperately want to be more for them. I try to remind myself every minute to be more patient and kind.
To me, this was the perfect post!

2008-05-12T14:41:00.000-04:00

Your words are so truthful. What a reminder to me as I've been feeling the same way. Thank you.

2008-05-12T13:55:00.000-04:00

Wow, that brought tears to my eyes. I have spent a lot fo time watching other moms myself, since my own mom died when I young, and then I had a crazy stepmom for a while... sometimes it's strange to me that I'm just a "normal" mom who loves her kids. I can't believe I am one of those, someone who is not perfect at all but just loves her kids and takes care of them. That's what I do. Wow. I'm so thankful.

Did you eat the spaghetti, though? I'm not sure *I* could have, lol!

2008-05-12T13:33:00.000-04:00

I have days like that too. I think the very fact that you are noticing your own flaws is an indication that you ARE a good mother--none of us are perfect, but those of us who are trying to improve are on the right path. The bad mothers are the ones who are flawed and don't care and don't work on changing.

2008-05-12T10:38:00.000-04:00

What a thoughtful post. While it may not have been a particularly "happy" Mother's Day for you, it sounds like these thoughts are very important. I think we more of us should strive to be the best mother's we can be. I recently witnessed a few awful parenting events (I posted about them on my blog) that made me realize that while I will NOT be a perfect mom (because who is?) I certainly will not be as bad as the ones that you mentioned or I witnessed.

Happy (belated) Mother's day to you. I'm sure you are a great mother, or you wouldn't have even had the ability to think about how to get better :)

2008-05-12T10:35:00.000-04:00

So true. Great post.

Happy Mother's Day!
