Yesterday was Mother's Day. My day was very special. One son and his family came for dinner. Another was on vacation but called twice to tell me how much I meant to him. I received a delightful message from my daughter.
I know I'm proud of each of my children. Not for what they have accomplished but for what they are inside. They are good people. When I look at them I see kindness and compassion. I like my children as well as love them.
I spent sometime yesterday thinking of my own mother. Perhaps I've been too critical at times. After all if I can admit I am not perfect how can and why should I demand perfection from her. We are each a product of our childhood. We of course shape our own future but those past influences will always be there.

I know your mother. I think you are justified.
