Being a mom......

Maybe people told me that parenting was hard. Maybe I should have figured that just growing up but honestly I wasn't that bad, well what I remember of life as a child. I just never knew that it was this hard. I feel it is a daily battle of learning new ways to do things. The limits are pushed and we work a new way. I don't like being the bad guy all the time. Some days I feel as if my kids went to bed and we just didn't have the greatest day. It breaks my heart so bad. I am trying so hard but I give an inch and they want a mile. This too shall pass and something new will arise I know this. I am just hoping with the nice weather comes nicer, respectful kids.
