Mr. this for that?
Hello Sunshine,

I am always impressed with my son's ability to wow me! He knows I can't do his homework. He knows I can't say no too many times in a row and he knows that my heart is just as tender as his.

Yesterday he told his doctor that he needs to try harder and that medication was not going to help him because he knows he has to step up and control his own anxiety. I can't even describe the feeling of hearing him own his emotions. Finally, I see my hard work and years of communicating with him paying off. Maturity is a beautiful thing.

I know that he is well aware of his limitations. He will milk any situation to get what he needs. I am working over time to be one step ahead of him and I am still behind!!

Only now we both know it. I can see the gleam in his eyes when he thinks he is going to con me. He can see my eyes roll and he knows he lost the battle. Oh how fun it is to see which one of us is the biggest loser. I am proud of my relationship with my kids!

I am proud because every day they make me want to be a better person! I am doing this right!

Love,
Michelle
