Tonight I am in mourning. I mourn for the mom that I failed to be for my kids. I mourn for the struggles I have now placed in front of them as they go back to school tomorrow. I feel like I have completely failed them, and failed my family. I wonder what it all was for, as now I am a part time worker, with no need to be. I am definitely riding on the pity train tonight. But I will not give up on what I believe in, and will make another go at it in the future. (Despite what those around me say). Man, when it rains, it pours, huh?
You certainly aren’t a failure as a parent if you aren’t giving up on what you believe in and continue to make a go at it. Hope it stops pouring soon.

Why do you think you have failed them?
Also, the sheer fact that you are so upset over whatever this is, shows how much you care for them…you haven’t failed. You are an amazing mom. ❤

Thank you for your kind words 🙂 Maybe it’s more that I let myself down. I thought I could do better for my kids. I am too harsh on myself sometimes.
