I don't want to dwell on my mom's shortcomings at this point, and I sure hope my kids see the water and not just the air in the glass.

I felt like I had finally grown up when I stopped focusing on my mother not understanding me, and started trying to understand my mother. We all do our utmost best, and hope our children someday realize that.
