You are in a privileged place to be a mother of children ages 27 to 5. <br /><br />With all the experiences we have had while living here on earth, I am so excited to see what heaven will be like, when many mothers will be reunited with their children.<br /><br />You are right, each generation has its own unique story to tell.<br /><br />Thank you for this great post.

It made me stop a...I really appreciated this post. It made me stop and ponder many things (and you know that I love pondering!!)<br /><br />One thing that came to my mind was how often I consulted books on how to parent. Which often led to confusion and guilt. (Mother guilt - is there anything so terrible???) <br /><br />All too often we fail to consult The Book - the Word of God - which contains the best *advice* on everything!<br /><br />I think what I treasure most about my relationship with my grown sons is this - we can be honest with each other. That honesty, coupled with respect, has led to the ability to communicate openly. I think that's what I love the most - that my adult sons are now also my friends.<br /><br />Hope you have a wonderful Mother's Day, Janette - you certainly deserve one. And may God richly bless you with His "Well done!"<br /><br />GOD BLESS!Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00840994989201507494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-292398111323195424.post-20122791279220820392011-05-07T10:12:53.453-07:002011-05-07T10:12:53.453-07:00I love stories of women who get a late start.

I have had a couple of issues in these last couple of days that hsve me look LONG and hard at these feelings. It is sooo very hard to let go of your children. In many ways, you never really do I have found. They are "your babies" forever. Your need to protect, guide, love (or beat over the head,haha) just NEVER ends. And truthfully? It really HAS made me look at my own relationship with my mother and understand it soo much better. Laura Wilder was very wise indeed! Have a wonderful, wonderful Mother's Day Janette. Just wanted to tell you that I think you are an awesome mom, doing a wonderful job, and your kids are blessed indeed!
