Ask my kids that one, they know me better than I do. Sometimes I wish I could see myself through their eyes and make life easier for their benefit and avoid all the pitfalls of helping them cope with life as a 4,8,12,14,15 year old. Running a single parent household with five children has it's challenges...but the rewards will be enormous and satisfying in the end. If that day is never realized when I do see myself through their eyes, I will have to do with being super positive, ultra supportive, mega creative, wonderful listener and just plain out "SUPER BAD!!!"...in a good way of course.
