joy

 

When my children were little I used to look at mothers of teenagers and think ‘where do you get your joy?’  I dreaded the thought of my children growing up as I could not imagine motherhood getting any better.

And we all know what everyone has always said about teenagers.

Now they are teenagers and I have really loved each day with them better than the last. Like everything else in life – you have to give up to get.

They are and always will be my Christmas angels.

  1. I am so happy to hear that!
    As a teacher, I never wanted nor thought I would teach students in grade 7 and up. Grade 8 has kind of been thrust upon me. When I tell people the grade I teach, I usually get sympathetic looks or cringes. However, the kids are great, and I am enjoying them more than I thought. Hope for the future with my own!
