Yes! Our kids are 12&10. Everyone asks how they are such great kids and I just say, "We just loved them." Our entire parenthood world has revolves around raising them to be good people. They are awesome kids!

I -LIKE- my kids. I grew up being constantly reminded that my parents didn't like me, and preferred I was quiet, followed their rules, never questioned them, and never had an opinion of my own. My relationship with my kids is NOTHING like that.

I truly think my kids are the coolest people I have ever met. I love hanging out with them! I know they’re growing up and I’m genuinely sad that they’ll move away for school.

I feel this way about my daughter too. She’s going away to college in the fall and even though I’m sad, I’m soooo happy for her. I enjoyed these last few years though. She’s an amazing human. She’s ready for the world.
