'Always be a first~rate version of yourself instead of a second~rate version of somebody else'
~ Judy Garland

Avery definitely fits this particular moto. There are many days I wish I could be more like her in this aspect of my life. Sometimes it's hard not to look at all the wonderful things everyone else is doing and think 'why can't I be like that'. I think these thoughts can be beneficial to a point. For me, these thoughts can influence me to want to be a better mom, a better wife, a better friend etc.. in these instances I'm greatful..
. . I admit I have to reasure myself on more than one occasion that I'm a worth while person and my position as a stay at home mom is the greatest job I'll ever do.

'At work, you think of the children you have left at home. At home, you think of the work you've left unfinished. Such a struggle is unleashed within yourself.'
~Golda Meir
I love this quote. It reminds me, also, that I would struggle with the decision if I chose to go back to work full time. Plus, I have to remind myself that life is constantly changing..I won't be a stay at home mom forever and that will be a bitter/sweet day as well!!

Love you and this!rit
Oh my dear you are right on "life is ever changing". This has been a wonderful week for me and on the other hand a very somber one! My youngest grandchild is walking, Heather moved out, and I do so worry and feel so bad for Lucy. I love your honesty and willingness to share. I love that you are always trying to improve what ever station of life you are in. The list of "loves" goes on and on. Never question your worth ~ yours is none greater or less then another!! I love you!!!
