Before having kids I knew I was going to love and nurture my kids into being great people. I knew my job as the mom of my little humans was to protect them and guide them. As my kids got older I continued to do what I considered to be guiding them. I admonished their decisions when they made poor ones and I praised their good decisions.

I usually start second guessing my decisions, getting confused, and just driving myself crazy. I have been like this for awhile now.
