Contrary to popular belief, there is more than one path to success for our kids. Each one of them is unique and will not fit into the same mold despite our best efforts! Stop comparing your kiddo to your neighbors and be the light that helps them find their own path to success.

When was the last time you stopped to think about how good you are? It's probably been a while. Even when you mess up, you are GOOD. And, your family needs this imperfect version of you-- not some idealic, perfect, wannabe creation that you carry around in your head.
