Kids!

Living thru your childs eyes....its not so easy!! Just when u assume ( its always been assumptions, somehow, those very sure minds of us parents never seem to know things for sure!! when it comes to our very own brood...) they are coming along well...u r dragged into another tunnel , a seemingly endless one of hurt and despair.
Whoever said its easy to understand them...need to re run their lives...

Kids!! Such a small word, just 4 letters, but they bring with them endless challenges. Ever tried convincing ur child that no matter what they do, he still still is the apple of your eye?? try it....they dont want to be the apple, they wanted the apple themselves...Try explaining that failing to win a race is nothing, they could always do better next time....they want to have not won it but at least won it!!! Its not easy to c ur little one suffering hurt...its easier to bandage those wounds, that require antiseptic, and bandages...its easier to re wrap all their books, but its not easy to wipe away that misery he goes thru, just because he lost a small piece of paper in which he wrote something...

One day he's literally avoiding his friends like plague, just because they bullied him, but when u tell them to ignore those very friends, he feels sorry for them....he feels sorry, that one of his friends does not have the same kind of atmosphere in his home, ...." ma, so sad, he's always alone at home..." How do u put ur arms around this child, when all he knows are how not to hurt u, if he knows ur lonely, .....??

The whole time the kids are around,
all I can think of is to run away to get some peace...
but the minute I send them somewhere to leave me in peace,
i'm in pieces....
But at the end of the day, I'm sure glad, that this great one above, deemed me fit, to be the mother of these 2 wonderful kids...and I really hope I fit in well in their scheme of thing.!!
