Parenting thoughts I posted on facebook

So grateful for my girls. I cannot imagine one day without either of them. I am so glad we are foraging ahead closer than ever. It seems like going through such a difficult situation that was beyond any of our control (brought on by a selfish other) has turned out to be the best thing ever! I am not saying it will be easy but I am so glad that the evil (being) is gone and only good things are ahead. When you have children, they have to come first, no matter what. You cannot lie or trick your children, they catch on very quickly. You have to tell them the truth and let them decide. Fortunately for me, telling them the truth has worked to my advantage. I am glad I have been completely honest about what others have done and I have nothing to hide, and I can verify every single word I have said.  Telling them the truth has made us stronger than ever. Being a parent is serious business. A full time job that I am grateful to have, seeing my girls once a week for a few hours would never work for me. I love them way too much to just be a part-time parent. Completely unacceptable to me. I look forward to spending every day and every night with both of them. I will always be here for them no matter what! They deserve the best, and that is what I intend on providing. I am not sure how any parent can settle for less and the children should not settle for less either.
