[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 116988"] It came back to me. LOL Sigh... [img]:rolleyes:[/img] We have to be accommodating for our kids. But I've become too accommodating. It's my job to raise her to be successful. And by successful, I don't mean wonderful career making lots of money. I mean being the best that she can be. As prepared for life as she can be. Allowed to fail. Allowed to struggle - enough to know the sweet taste of accomplishment. And realizing that it's going to be harder for her, but that she can do it. I say that all the time: that it's going to be harder, but it's not an excuse to give up. It's time I put that to real use instead of just lip service. Thanks for letting me get my thoughts out.
