I've decided to start the week out with something that makes my brain think... something that I can contemplate and work on through out the week... so I thought this would be a good one to start with... I've always taught my kids that you don't have to change to be someone or something for someone else... if they don't like you for who you are or what you have to offer... then they are no good for you.. you don't need them to be in your life... move on to bigger and better things!!! I think I need to think about this in my own life... I can't teach, guide or advise without living with it in my own life as well... Who cares if you don't like the way I look... I don't dress to impress you!! Who cares if I'm not as smart as you are... or can't keep up with your conversation... I'm smart in my own ways... and no one has the right to judge that!!! Who cares if you think my sense of humor is not your cup of tea... you don't like it... don't talk to me!!! Lessons I've taught my kids... lessons I need to learn myself!!!
Today... Today is my Big Man's 16th Birthday... I can't believe it... where has the time gone? Seems like yesterday I was trying so hard to keep him inside and from going into preterm labor... and then when he just wouldn't give up... he came out so tiny.. with a head full of beautiful red hair... OMG!! I feel so old!!! I'm so proud of him and what he has become... his goals... his dreams... his aspirations!!! He is going to go far in life... he knows what he wants in his life.. he has so many talents... he is bright... he is smart... he has a heart of gold... he everything a Mom could ever ask for in a son... His compassion for others is beyond compare... I love him so much.. and today he is one step closer to being a man... having the ability to drive... and more independence... I love you D!!!
Well I've got things to do so I'm out of here... Later!!!
