Life in a household filled with demands and complaints is a reality many parents face.
I often hear about what's wrong, what could go wrong, and how it’s usually my fault, my responsibility, or my problem to fix.
However, every now and then, a rare compliment comes my way from the one who often challenges me the most.
These compliments are infrequent, but they hold deeper significance than mere words. And I almost missed it because I was genuinely enjoying both the movie and the high.
As I sat watching a movie with my newly adult daughter, she acknowledged, "At least I know I'll never end up like that mom, because you taught me to stand up for myself and take care of my own needs."
Yes, my dear Bella, if you ever find yourself in a jam, you’ll know how to change a tire, start a fire, and even fend off a bear.
