You're going to be an awesome mom...Oh sweetie! You're going to be an awesome mom!!! Those same kids who shout, 'You're too strict' and 'I'm glad you're not my mom' inside secretly love that you care about them and make them tow the line. They're the same kids who flourish under your teaching because you're loving, kind and consistant. You said it yourself that kids love routine and predictability.<br><br>This is exactly the type of loving, caring home Polar Cub is going to grow up in!! One where love abounds and where she knows exactly what to expect when she does A, B or C. A mom and dad who love her like crazy and help her to grow to be the very best polar cub she can be!!!<br><br>Love you friend! You're going to be an AMAZING MOM!!! xoxoCatherinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06120007274654255204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1697426940966738029.post-48305643040755418922009-09-05T08:05:37.608-04:002009-09-05T08:05:37.608-04:00I'm sorry you had a rough week.

Sounds like these kids were not lucky enough to have someone like you right from their beginnings. <br><br>It's the weekend. Time to forget about the "crappy" weeks we had and enjoy our three days off!! :o)Suziehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02171178800883445977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1697426940966738029.post-56547685077601006862009-09-05T09:03:12.651-04:002009-09-05T09:03:12.651-04:00You are going to be an awesome mom!

That's why he said it.<br><br>I am strict with Briana.

My kids all thought I was too strict. Even my step-children who were already teenagers when I entered their lives. The best compliment I have is that my step-daughter is so called 'strict' with her daughter. She calls me about things and asks my opinion vs calling her own 'mom'. Having expectations and knowing those expectations makes children feel loved and I believe Polar Cub will know that!! Don't doubt yourself one minute... you'll be absolutely fine. And for those moments when you aren't the best parent in the world (and we ALL have those moments)... there's thing I call grace, and I'm so thankful to have it from the Father of all fathers. :0)Buckeyes & Eggrollshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04980445248386713210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1697426940966738029.post-55161924334685570572009-09-07T21:56:57.920-04:002009-09-07T21:56:57.920-04:00My children used to say "You're the only ...My children used to say "You're the only parents who make their kids have a curfew" or "You're the only parents who ........" yadda, yadda, yadda!!!! You will learn that you are NOT the only parents who make rules. By creating structure in your family you will be teaching Polar Cubbie to value structure and she will be comfortable & productive in a world full of rules to follow. You'll be giving her WONDERFUL TOOLS and you should be proud that.Red Bud Pamnoreply@blogger.com
