As Parents...

As parents we have made both good and bad choices
we will later regret the bad choices and wish we could change them
but we can't
we can't undo what has been done as much as we would love to
therefore we can only try to do better
parenting is one of the hardest yet most rewarding things
in life we can be a part of
we can read all the books on parenting we want
yet first hand experience is out best teacher
there are no perfect parents
as much as we would like to believe there is
we want our children to always look at us as hero's
yet not all do
we must continue to strive to be better parents
yet at times feel that isn't enough
even so we must keep doing our best
there will be times we have to tell our children no
not because we don't love them
but because we love them enough to say no
we hope that someday our children will understand
and always know that we love them...
