life takes you down certain paths ... for certain reasons.
This afternoon, I was a little click happy and found myself clicking from one blog, to another, and then to another ... and I found myself here. How I got there ... I can't even tell you, but all that really matters is that I found my way.
At a time I so desperately needed to.
And I read the following sentence and it made things crystal clear to me, when things had been rather foggy for awhile.
My child is different because he came into this world to make a difference.
Does that not make perfect sense? Does that not make you feel so much better about parenting your children on the difficult days? Or weeks? Or years? Those 14 words can put a halt to sleepless nights when you wonder what in the world you're doing wrong in your tactics. Why your child can't be like everyone else? Hopefully, those words will put an end to the constant analyzing and judgments that are constantly made inside your own head.
I'm sharing this with you and I hope you'll, like me, remember it and repeat it to yourself when you so need to be reminded that what you are doing is the hardest job on earth, yet the most important. And you're doing great.
That sentence just touched me. It mattered to me. And I wanted to share.
Alright, enough of this sappy crap ... I'm off to go yell at my girls for something ... anything.
