I do this often, think back to my childhood and contemplate what led me to this place I am in now. I do this because I love this place, it's basically everything (and more) I ever dreamed of. I know one thing that always has been with me is the love and acceptance my immediate family has always, and still to this day, provided me. I strongly believe it is what kept me on the straight and narrow, never willing to do things that I knew were stupid and destructive. Because of the love and acceptance of my family, I was strong enough in who I was to say no.
What more could I ever have asked for?
Today, I have a post up about the most important thing we can give our kids over at Canada Moms Blog.
It's what I wish for every single child.

I totally agree with you. And I think that's how OUR kids are going to get through the school years - they have us to surround them with love. :)
supportive influences are so important...I wish i could blind my kids to any nasties out there!!
I will do my best...
What a great post Kami. I hope I can help my boys have a self-confidence so that they can stand up for themselves and know how they deserve to be treated, yet not be cocky. Could be a fine line.
