We're turning into our parents aren't we?

I haven't had time to blog much. For example, this is my day today...AFTER I work 7.5 hours and drive an hour home from work...

5:45 - Nicolas at ballpark for team pictures
6:00 - Brendan honors ceremony at school (by invitation only so you HAVE to go)
6:30 - Brendan baseball practice (think we're gonna skip it today)
6:30 - Destiny AllStars softball practice
7:00 - Nicolas T-Ball game

So see, that's why I haven't blogged. Every stinking day has been like that this month. Well, except for the weekends....where we spend the whole time AT THE BALLPARK.

Anyway...the title of this post. I always took pride in the fact that I wasn't going to be like my parents. I was going to do things differently! I was going to pioneer this whole parenting thing. That is, until yesterday.

Yesterday I came to the realization that I am not my mother (thank GOD!) and I am not my father. BUT, rather, I am a happy medium between the two of them. I think that I take the best qualities from both, along with some of the worst to be honest. But the best prevail.

I would part the seas and jump the clouds if that's what I had to do to make sure they were happy. I have been faced with some of my worst fears regarding parenting and I think that we have made the right decisions regarding those problems. I guess only time will tell.

Anyway, I just think that I'm doing the same things my parents did with us. Maybe not specifically, but wholly. I am doing the best that I can. And my children should be lucky.
