Take Time

As parents we all know the frustrations of raising children and how we just want to take a timeout from being a mommy or a daddy and take time for ourselves. But with the recent tragedy in Newton we all should take a moment and look at things from a different angle. I know that my children can be difficult some days but at least I am able to squeeze my babies at the end of the day and I count myself lucky to be able to do so. I cannot imagine not being able to hug and squeeze the orneriness out of my children when they get to whining or misbehaving. I've learned that you should appreciate the time we have with our friends and family because you never know what tomorrow may bring.
