“capture their attitude, bottle it and sell it” – yes. It absolutely is an imbalance of guilt. Blerg.

It’s such a tough one, and I never understand how men (many of them anyway) aren’t affected by it. On one hand, I’m angry they aren’t beating themselves up too and on the other hand, I’m wishing I could capture their attitude, bottle it and sell it. Sigh.

I love how your are honest with both your feelings and also how Jesus helps you get through different situations. You are such a wonderful momma! Bless you sweet friend! ❤

Oh Rebecca. I totally do it to myself. The very personal mom guilt. But we ARE Wonder Women in all the good God-granted ways!

Oh I hope you’re right! I love that they are going independent, but man what a processing of letting go for me!

Our trains are most definitely on parallel tracks, Michele.

I just snorted, big time, at the thought of my kids ever thinking me perfect. It’s like that scene in Lord of the Rings when Galadriel shows Frodo what it would be like if she had the ring of power.

Ahhh, your story sounds EXACTLY like something I would do! Good for your son though to go ahead and dig in ; )

And the funny thing is, most of the time, I do it to myself. But there is such truth in your words. We are doing the work. We may not be there for every “WOW” achievement moment. But those moments wouldn’t happen without the work we put in. You are a wonder woman mom, simply because you are.

Letting them take flight is harder than we can sometimes bear. I promise that the letting them go is worth it. And they will remember all you did to allow them to fly.
