2 of the most important things in my life are my marriage and my children. When these 2 things are attacked or hurt, it hurts me in so many ways. I refuse to let it anger me, but I will speak up and clarify a few things.
#1 is God in our lives, then my marriage and the strength it brings to my family and my children.
I am on my own personal journey to better myself for my God, my husband, my children and MY LIFE!
I have found that the hardest obsticile has been to forgive those so close to our family for passing judgement. What makes it so hard is because there are certain people that have and always will love, support and guide you through life. What do you do when they are the very people calling your child names, telling you that you are parenting them in the wrong direction and instead of making your life a little easier in moments of dis-stress they just add to it? I have had to answer to my daughter why she is not favored like others around her. That hurts, especially because I know her Daddy and I do our VERY best to make every moment in her life so special. Then to have someone, who she only wants attention and love from shun her at times. I can't put into words how much pain it brings me!
Over the past 2 years this is a problem that has been growing in my life
and I refuse to let it have a negative effect on my family anymore.
It is one thing to call me names, but I have to say enough is enough
when you are name calling a precious child. It has been swept under the
rug and avoided. It has also been talked about and confronted.
Nothing has changed nor will it.
I say this:
"Judge me not for the parent that
YOU see I am
NOT, but for every moment I spend loving, adoring and cherishing my
family. May your heart some day not be so consumed with bitterness and
unhappiness. Maybe then you can love, adore and cherish my family as
well. Until then I forgive you and choose to pray each and every day for
you. "
God gave my husband and I these precious gifts and we will spend the rest of our lives loving, adoring,cherishing and you better believe PROTECTING them!
God did not make any two people the same. I understand that and I don't expect anyone to think, feel or see things as I do. I do expect others to respect the boundaries of my Marriage and Family.
Over the past 2 years this is a problem that has been growing in my life
and I refuse to let it have a negative effect on my family anymore.
