H...Layne you had me until those last two sentences. How is raising two nice young men a 'lack of accomplishment?' I know, and likely you do too, numbers of caring parents who would give a lot to be proud of their children, rather than enduring the disappointment and sorrow they now feel.<br /> I am older, and really appreciated my children when I was lucky enough to watch them raising wonderful children of their own. I refuse to slink away without taking some pride in their lives. I well remember the worries, the college trips, the crummy boyfriends, helping with homework, and lots of laughing. As a mother and then a stepmother, one is forever aware of 'setting a good example'without being a pain in the neck.<br /> Sometimes, as women, our reach exceeds our grasp, but it can be hard to grasp things when your hands are already full.<br /> May you have a happy, healthy, and prosperous New Year.<br />sophie.<br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
