I am the last person on earth who should ever say this, but I think Moms today are too sensitive. They are too sensitive to hear elders wisdom. I see a sea of out of control children on a regular basis, but we are allowed to say anything. If you are a young mother reading this, my words are as follows. Mothering is hard. You need all the help you can get. Don’t be too proud to ask for it. There were a couple Moms and Dads I would always go to for advice. They helped me raise my children. I am so grateful for them. I wouldn’t have it any other way. Frankly, technology isn’t evil it is just tools we have. Wickedness finds a way in sneaking in to our lives in al sorts of ways. Better to forge ahead with your eyes open then try to walk around with a blindfold on. I don’t think parenting now is harder necessary just different areas of challenges to face. We don’t need a war against millianials either. I would like to return to the times when you say around and listened to Grandpa’s stories. I love my younger Mom friends, but I don’t tell them anything unless they ask. I am hardly the expert on anything. Raising children like marrriage is just plain hard work. That’s my rant for today.
I am starting my own blog to reduce my boredom and give me a place to put my thoughts. Recently some people I know put some very difficult words out for all the world to see. I have been chicken to do the same and now I want to set the record straight. I didn't talk to people from high school for over ten years. It seems so silly now. I found out recently that I'm not the only one who grew up in college and beyond. We aren't kids anymore so the past is just that the past. I'll admit some of it I don't want to remember, but we did have some fun times in high school. The truth is something happened to me that I was not at all ready to talk about so I just avoided people. I got married in 1998 to a really great guy I met in college. We were giddy and in love. We decided after nine months of bliss to have a baby. Why not? I was bored and we wanted one. That sounds terrible to say that, but it is true. Boom one month later I was expecting. Three months later Jo
