Tonight I thought about the many parents out there that are overworked and under appreciated.

We matter.

Although at time it seems as if we get the back end of our children's energy, we matter.

I know I can't be the only mom of a teen that is having a tough time understanding them.

We give love, we provide, we pray, we run around like chickens without a head at time, and rarely we get the response from our teens that we would like.

It's tough being a parent, yet I wouldn't trade it for the world.

Our kids are the future, and heck, I remember being a teen myself...lol thats a whole other story WHEW!

But I made it and so did you, and so will our teens.

Once they they'll look back and realize, "Yup' Mom was really right all along...

That's it and that's all!
