amazed!!!

when i look at my kids, i get amazed. these little people are shaping into their own person. and everyday they learn something that just flabbergasts me.it's amazing to know,one of my children could grow up to be the president or the next scientist,that discover's a cure for a major disease.they are like little sponges and just absorb anything and everything.but it is also scary being a parent to know what you do or don't do.or how you handle something could affect the way they do things or see things. it's scary to know you hold their futures in your hand.my son will be entering high school this year and i think to myself,have i done everything right is there anything i should've done different?
it is scary to think that one decision,no matter how trivial the matter seemed. could have a lasting effect on our children.we have the honor and burden of raising the future generation and we only have one chance to get it right.there are no do over's.and that both frightens and amazes me all at the same time.
i find myself wondering what kind of parents they will be,when i sit there looking at shania comforting one of the babies. i get a great feeling cause she is very nurturing.and then i worry when my kids make the wrong decision, am i looking in to the future or was this a one time deal.kids are truly a blessing and amazing and scary all at the same time.
