Happy Mother's Day to Me.

For mother's day, I was given a very nice piece of original fine art- and its even supposed to be me! And Friday. I also got to go to Cici's pizza buffet last night, and we discussed how my children could make being a mother easier for me.
I don't believe there has ever been a mother's day where I have been less confident in my mothering skills.

  2. Fabulous picture! Really captures your spirit...and Friday, too. =)

    Don't question your mothering skills too much...
    If you think you're are doing perfect = you are in denial.
    If you think you're terrible = you are too hard on yourself.
    If you are constantly challenged, and have to juggle a bzillion different things & feel unappreciated, over-worked and completely exhausted 99% of the time = you're a normal mom doing her best. And you are not alone.
    So keep praying & keep loving 'em, and keep painting to feed your creative soul. Painting is your personal therapy....and like my quilting, it's cheaper than a shrink!
    (And just be glad they are teens yet!)
    Happy Mothers Day!

  3. Love the painting! Roxanne has some serious talent... she must get that from her mom! I totally get the mothering skills... I think it has been harder to parent Elise that older she gets. So you are not alone.
