I bopped back and forth across the country in 48 hours and had the luck to sit between two lovely women on my way home. One, a single mom, and the other, a married mother of at least four kids, both very active in their churches.

The single mom talked about her 14 year old daughter and how quickly she was growing up and how challenging it is to keep her from becoming too adult. The married mom talked about the challenges of raising kids who were severely abused by their biological parents.

I just listened and was reminded to count my blessings and to appreciate my parenting challenges that don’t involve teenagers (yet) and heartbreak.
