The real me

Suddenly I realized that I grew up and my daughter  is in  middle school.
I suddenly  assessed my life and realized that I have totally and complete  changed to a different  person. I sat down with myself  and had a nice chat, I am now much more wiser, stronger, resourceful,....etc. I am now older. I am not  aging,  I am just getting older mentally and emotionally. I've always thought that mothers are teaching their children,  but I realized that it's a  whole educational process. I am learning   through motherhood  as much as I'm  teaching my children. I  learn about myself,  my capabilities,  my strengths and weaknesses, my dreams and wishes,  I  learn every day  a new thing about me. And from learning and self knowledge I  start to teach and transfer all the information to my kids. The past 12 years taught me more than my entire educational journey. I am now a new me a much stronger one, I realized that at the same time I'mnot done yet, I still have much to learn,  my kids are growing  and I need to be prepared.
The best part when my little boy cam and told me: "  today in class we talked about super heros.... and I told Mrs. S that my mom is a "Supermom" she can do anything."
That really  brought tears to my eyes. .. it's  a blessing I  thank God for.
Never underestimate yourself and your capabilities,  you are much more than what you think you are.
