Mama Loves You |
Sweet Son and his BFF are both having girl issues this week... and my Mama Bear is coming out in full force. So hard to be the mom to teenagers. When they are little you can easily fix just about any hurt... only you don't really realize that WHILE they are little. I wish I had. I wish I knew then that having a three year old was about the easiest it would ever get as a parent. There is no way now for me to fix what hurts... just have to smile, give my best advice, biggest hug (when no one is LOOKING, of course) and hope it doesn't hurt too bad or for too long. I remember being their age and thinking my parents had all the answers, like they knew some big secret that I would become privy to when I became a parent... now I know they were flying by the seat of their pants just like I am. DANG.IT.

What you are saying is so true...and it doesn't get easier as teens grow into young adults. You have to know when to step back, yet "be there" for them at the same time. Sounds like you have some of this figured out!
Three is easy? Good lord, I am in trouble. My daughter just turned three and went from being a sweet two year old into total Diva. :)
You sound like a great mom and that print is awesome.
Sissy,
Tell SS that all the women (mom, mimi and his aunt) in his life know that he is a real catch and the girls are waiting in line to get a date with him.
However, Aunt Mama Bear would join Mama Bear if needed!
Love the post and the poster and love you.
Thank you so much for featuring my print! I'm glad that it has meaning for you. Hang in there, I'm sure your son will pull through :)
Your post is so cute! I had a teenage daughter and trust me, it's very different with girls. Waiting for the phone to ring, what to wear, will he like me, will her not, etc. Good for you that you seem to have gotten the hang of "teenage-dom."
I love the print!
I sympathize with Mama....
oh my! Are you living my life right now? SAME thing going on with my son, and I feel EXACTLY like you do! There's only so much you can do for them sometimes. you just can't take it away. :(
I love that print! I don't have any kids (other than my Bubby dog), but I do have nieces and nephews ;).
Thank you for the comment on my blog and becoming a follower. I'm following you now too!
