Over the last few weeks over been feeling that I've be failing totally as a mom. I've been feeling that I can't control my 3 1/2yo and that no matter what I try in order to discipline him, nothing works.
Well last week was the school holidays and our church always does a holiday club for the 6-12yos during the February holidays. I helped out and due to circumstances had to take my 16month old with me (I was able to leave DS with parents/in-laws).
At the club 3 separate people on 3 different occasions just said to me (we weren't talking about my children) how lovely and well behaved my children are and how lovely I am with them and how being a mom is something that I'm really good at (they also mentioned I should have more as I'm a natural!! But that's another story).
Now I don't think I'm a natural mom or anything but it was such a boost for so many people so say what they did,just, when I was needing the reassurance. God is great
