Fulfilling my journey

I've been very busy this summer and have not had time to write on my blog until now. The summer is going so fast but enjoying it more this year, especially with my own family. I have five great beautiful grandchildren, Sophia, Myles, Chloe, Nicolas and Taryn. I have been spending more time with them since I retired and love every moment.

As a mother, I wanted to give my children the best of everything, yet often the one thing I did not give them is the best of my self. Yet, it is exactly that what they most wanted. As a young mother, I was very insecure and afraid to expose my weaknesses and fears. Painfully I learn too late that my children ache to be included in my world, for the chance to do something important, even be involved. I have had many hard lessons to learn since then with my children. Thankfully, they become responsible adults and good loving parents.

Now, I stopped pretending to be what I thought I was to be, and realized that I am only what I make of myself. I embrace grand motherhood now I have the chance to hand down my hard-earned wisdom and offer them my soul strength to make a difference in my grandchildren lives. Especially to give them all my love and affection, and the joy while they are growing up. To give this to them would be the most fulfilling journey in my life.
