Today, I am thankful for my kids. Yup, they may drive stark raving mad some days but I am thankful for who the people they are right this instant. My kids know I am not going to lie or cover up for them. Don't even think of asking and there are times I am sure they would really like me to.
After dealing with parents refusing to believe little Johnny or Susie could do anything wrong and the rest of the world is picking on them... I give thanks for my knowingly human kids.
I give thanks I am their mom - not trying to achieve "bestest friend" status. The kids probably give thanks for that too.
I love them.
That's it.
