One of the hardest parts of being a parent to me is realizing that I cannot keep my kids in a protective bubble.
They are going to be exposed to tons of things that I cannot control...everything from people using bad language around them to true heartbreak.
I just wish I could keep them protected from all bad things forever!!!!
Oh my goodness, you are blogging again and the blog looks so great!
ReplyDeleteIt's hard being a parent, and so heartbreaking to watch your children hurt(physically or emotionally)!
You actually probably could protect them from most of it, but they would turn out to be weirdos. I've met some young adults who were extremely overprotected, and when they met the real world, it was not a pretty sight! The best parents are the ones who teach their kids right from wrong, cushion the blows along the way, and gently guide them so they will be capable adults one day. I know you are doing that for your kids, and they'll be confident and ready to take on the world one day!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to see you blogging again! :-)
