It's an adventure being a mom to teenagers. They want to be grow but they want to be taken care of also . When it feels like its a no win situation I am so glad I have a compass in the word of God to show me the truth. You can't get much bigger than the creator of the universe to ground you and remind you that the stability of your sanity is intact, and you are so doing an amazing job at parenting.
Seeing my girls go through struggle and tension of growing up I wish I could take the hard stuff away, I wish I could do it for them. Standing my ground and not being run over by the Mack truck of attitude is a challenge for me, time is too short to live with regret of missed opportunity and cowardliness in discipline. Someday I want to be their friend, right now I'm mom, I will always be mom but adding friend will be fun. The struggle is worth it when I see them succeed, they are so far ahead of where I was at their age.
Proud mom moment when your teenager texts you an apology for a stinky attitude, with in minutes not days!!!
Wouldn't trade this mom gig for anything in the world.
Fast or slow life is going to happen. Big time or tent city you have to do this thing called life. Sharing my steps,missteps,joys and tears is my goal. For you to bust out of ruts, think differently. My story is being written every day by grace and so is yours. Thank you for reading be blessed.

Grace Glue
Grace to stay married, everyone needs it.
It may seem like a given, but its not, your mate has sin.
Sin like your sin, sin that hurts like your sin hurts them, hurts God.
Grace from the blood of Jesus is glue, glue to hold it together FOREVER.
Divorce rips your heart flesh into shreds.
God has an endless supply of grace glue to fix it.
I don't know why this is so on my heart to write today, I guess because sometimes I can get so wrapped up in what someone else did to me that I forget to check my heart, my motives, my concern. In the area of marriage it can be easy to let things slide DON'T DO IT! Be engaged in your mate, if you were telling God the truth on your wedding day that from this day forward you are committed, be committed.
I have been on the darkside, of crappy married times and even divorce. The grass isn't greener, invest and water where you are, what God has joined together let no man, even yourself put asunder. Or stating another way put us under.
Today I am in so love with Mr.Smith can't wait for him to get home from work. Cheesy love from an honest place is the best.
Rambling from the heart.......
