Parenting

I'm in no way shape of form the best at parenting! I'll admit it, but some people's parenting really ticks me off. The things I sometimes see just amaze me!

I've seen parents let their children run wild at a wedding while they sit outside and get wasted and then load their kids up in the car to head on down the road! WHAT? Yeah I know that's what you are thinking (or at least any good parent would be thinking). Even after being stopped and asked to please let you take the kids and follow you to where ever it is your going.

Pawning your kids off on someone else to go do whatever else it is that you want to do and then wonder why your kid(s) don't want to "hang out" with you. Maybe because you've pawned them off too many times.

Here's the kicker this morning while taking my kids to school. Walking my 1st grader to class I hear a father tell his daughter "We don't have time for hugs and kisses every day, now come on and stop crying". Made me want to go hug that little girl! Who doesn't have time to hug and kiss their child/children every day?!

Do people not realize that children are a blessing, and that blessing can be taken away from you so easily! They need to thank God that they have that child to love every day. Even if you are running behind it takes 30 seconds to give your child a hug and a kiss. Hug and kiss your child every single time you can!

Now to make my morning better after hearing this father I get to my 1st graders class and her teacher hugs her and kisses her on the head...which she's done every day since the first day! Melts my heart that she loves her students so much!

Now my funny for the day! When walking my Kindergartner to class I hear "Natalie's here"! (melts my heart again). Then a little boy says to me "Have a good day at work":) I have the best job, so how could I not have a good day? Thanks little guy!
