What our kids really think about us

Today I was talking to a mom who believed she wasn't doing anything right.

I said, "Relax, mommy. Seriously, all that matters is they're clothed, fed and safe. You can put them in nice clothes or simple ones, you can feed them organic or canned food, you can watch over them yourself or hire trustworthy help. Whatever you do, as long as you do it in love, you're doing what's right for your kids."

She said, "I can't do that. I can't relax. How can you do that?"

"Because I don't have a lot of time with them," I replied. "Every day, they take one step farther away from me. I'm going to enjoy this while it lasts!"

We need to love motherhood, mommies. We have to stop the guilt. Our kids love us just the way we are! 

P.S.
Here's what Vito thinks of me:

Vito: Mama, you're hot!

Me: (blushing) What? Aww, thanks! Who taught you that?

Vito: Papa! (Then he touches my arm, rubs my skin.) Hmm. Oh no, you're not hot. You're cold!

There went my ego! Kids, you gotta love them!
