In my latest post I talked about regrets we can have as a mother. What are some areas you struggle with or did you struggle with when your kids were growing up?

Balancing time being with my kids because I'm a sahm with times that I am truly WITH my kids!  I mean, I am always with them, but many times I'm not engaged with them.  I keep them safe, warm, fed, clothed, bathed, and entertained...but sometimes I'm not breathing into their lives as much as I should be and want to be.  This is my biggest struggle now...it changes with the years...and sometimes with the days!

I totally understand what you are saying.  Since I have a lot to do on the computer, I have made a commitment to myself that if they walk up to talk or ask question I stop what I am doing no matter what.  And then I make the time to "be" with them (of course with teenagers that is more like torture for them) ha.  But that makes me feel good too, hehehe.

Thanks for commenting.
