They all leave home SURE they know everything, but eventually they have all called me more and more with, "Mom, what should I do?" or "What do you think?" or "Mom, can you PLEASE help me?" haha I love it of course. Your right, we all need a little help once in a while. Even at 56 I still need that once in a while from my own mom. Even if it is just to hear her say, "Debbie, this too shall pass." What a wonderful gift God gave to us in motherhood. Both being one, and having one. Have a wonderful dau Janette. HUGSDebbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09836655708421528876noreply@blogger.com
