It's something to laugh at later (even if not always in the moment) and nice to know that other's live reality, too.marlowehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17038380112579282024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4421893586033340825.post-20671864865774997332010-12-09T14:09:55.048-08:002010-12-09T14:09:55.048-08:00Oh April-I love this post!

We had family prayer without my husband and daughter who were in another room having a major melt down/discipline time, no one brushed their teeth and I snapped at my daughter instead of giving her a hug and so on and so forth. As I tried to race my boys through their prayers, I got teary eyed thinking about what a bad mother I was and how my whole family is going to fall apart because of this and that.<br /><br />When the reality is-that too was just 'a moment.' Our family and my mothering aren't so bad (most of the time...).<br /><br />Today I sat down and wrote a post about a few 'moments' I've had lately, though they clearly aren't the reality of our life. <br /><br />Blogging is great, and we can learn so much from each other, but I think it really gives people, moms especially, a false sense of REALITY!<br /><br />Great perspective, as always.Tiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15619765384788233274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4421893586033340825.post-29186469196470505802010-12-09T03:12:22.433-08:002010-12-09T03:12:22.433-08:00I loved this April!
