Gettin Stressed?

Lets face it, being a mom can be stressful!! The best thing you can do for yourself is take time out for yourself. I sometimes really get down on myself if I don't DO IT ALL!! There really is no way a mom can.. and I don't know about the rest of you, but are you guys tired? LOL!!
I want to start this blog as a means of support for all the moms out there, that need support! I want to write about my kids and things that I do, so that maybe it will help another mom!! I know I may not be the perfect parent, but this can be a place that we can share our ideas and concerns for our children and try to help each other make a difference in our kids lives.
Here is my first tip!! YAY!!
I think if I could share the single most important thing that is vital to my relationship with my kids, is COMMUNICATION! They want explanations about why and how things are happening in this world. There are so many times our children get teased, or they hear inappropriate comments and it is our responsibility to ask our kids questions and open the lines of communication with them.
I talked with my son recently about the importance of always staying true to yourself. He was being teased at school, and I wanted to let him know that the way it makes you feel, is the exact reason why you shouldn't do it to others.
Please feel free to leave comments about communication experiences that you and your children have faced and lets start this awesome blog of support!!!
