Moments. Parenting is about moments. Or maybe this is how I have to think. If I look at the big picture with the fighting and teasing... I can only wonder why I ever thought I was cut out for this.
Yet, in a day, there are those moments that I can be proud. So I am looking for the moments. Reflecting on those moments that I feel good about my boys.
While at the mall yesterday, the boys and Sanj got things that they needed/wanted. While Sanj was finishing up, we sat waiting. Sammy says, "Mom, you bought us all stuff... I can watch them. It is your turn to go. GO!"
Sweet!
As we were going to hockey, I grabbed the door since Jordan had his hands full with his hockey bag. Yet he grabs the door, and insists that I go first.
Moments.
These moments hopefully add up to build a fine young man. And looking back it will hopefully be those moments that I will reflect on.
