I'm not always (or often) the sweet, soft spoken, mom I long to be. I've been stressed with all the snow days and my current semester of college. Shuffling everything to make sure I can also do schoolwork has stretched me. One Friday, Grace refused to go to her homeschool classes, so I missed my precious 4.5 hour homework time. I was not gracious. I may have had a mini nervous breakdown. When I crawled into bed that night, after a very long day, I found these notes:
Grace's stated, "I'm sorry I shouldn't of (have) done that and ruined your schedule. Please forgive me." I felt like a bad, crappy mom. Mom guilt is real.
Then I read Sam's card. "Please calm down. You're just stressing everybody else out." I admire your honesty son, and you are correct. I'd done enough crying so I decided to just laugh. Really, really hard.
