I'm learning to move on from my best into something much better for myself and my family. <br /><br />Vanessa-Yes, it is hard to have regrets. ((HUGS)) I just try to remember that in so much of my early parenting I *did* listen to my instincts and now I'm learning to trust them even more.Stacihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15737928323694787579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043605892556922354.post-89370141213906391612011-04-21T21:51:47.228-07:002011-04-21T21:51:47.228-07:00Just stopping by from the blog party.

My oldest is almost 4, but even in that short time period I have regrets. :( I could resonate with much of what you were writing in some of your posts. For me, I've just chosen to ask for forgiveness and move on. It's not always easy and I DAILY have to re-think my thoughts on discipline and guilt over the past.Vanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13290995561859770952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043605892556922354.post-34136689766154205112011-04-19T14:00:08.630-07:002011-04-19T14:00:08.630-07:00Stopping by from the blog party.

To have a child at 16 is something I could not imagine, so it's obvious, to me, that you would make different choices now than back then. That you love your children has to be enough sometimes ...<br />Wishing you inner peace.<br /><br />Mrs Green @littlegreenblog.comrae-annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07166852642128654920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043605892556922354.post-37511733743058910102011-04-16T18:23:38.064-07:002011-04-16T18:23:38.064-07:00CM-thanks!

So nice to see yet another mom of a teen. : )<br />I have told people many times that had my older two children been boys they would have been circumcised I just never even thought it was a choice back then. {{hug}}Sashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10097710575277034965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043605892556922354.post-82457650614599526202011-04-15T19:43:20.418-07:002011-04-15T19:43:20.418-07:00:sniffing happy tears: ((((Staci)))) Thank you s...:sniffing happy tears: ((((Staci)))) Thank you so much!
