'I see parents all around me who make it look so naturally easy. I keep telling myself it’s only what I see on the outside and I don’t know the whole picture. But I also can’t change who I am.'
, I decide that this is the year things will be different. I’m going to be organized. I’m going to be on top of everything. I’m going to make sure my children are well nourished and send them off every day with lovingly packed, nutritionally balanced lunches. I do pretty well, for about four weeks. But then my children ask why can’t they have hot lunch like their friends? I give in once or twice. By week six, my children have fully transformed into hot lunch kids.
If I can make it to school with all supplies in tow the first time, I’m feeling fairly proud of myself. But as I have come to learn, parenting is a path too often filled with surprises. One hurried morning I opened the car door for my then five year old daughter and she jumped out looking shockingly“I don’t know,” she shrugged.
I raked through her tangles with my fingers as best I could and sent her on her way, shaking my head at what horror would fill her teachers that day as they bestowed their eyes upon my mess of a child. Surely they would pity her. Sadly, this has happened to me now on several occasions, and I’m anxiously awaiting the day she can brush her own hair.
