One time, my five year old told me, "You are the best Mommy in the whole wide world!"
I love to ask a 'deep' question to kids and get their innocently creative answers. Answers that are genuine, have not been shaped by media, school, other people thoughts...
And so I asked him, "How can you know that I am the best mommy? Who knows others are better?"
He pondered a while and replied solemnly, "Because to every kid, his mommy is the best in the world."
There were times we beat ourselves whether we are doing well mothering the family. I hope with this little post we can be reminded that to our kids, we are still the best. Keep going...
