I just try to remember that God made to be the best ME that I can be, not someone else. I think there are a lot of "super moms" that don't tell the whole story either.

Do they take awhile to germinate?<br /><br />This is a wonderful post. I agree, that we should not compare ourselves with other blogging moms that look like they have it all together.

I had my last two girls late in life-40 and 41. Maybe I'm smart enough now to know what is truly important.

Not being the one to make someone else feel like they can't measure up. We are all equal children of God.
