*LONG transparent post* PLEASE....don't read if you want to cast judgement, or if you have your life altogether.... these girls, my two teens, did a photo-shoot on Easter. they came in, wanting me to look at their pictures, and all I could think was, look at them....the BEAUTY. it IS *captivating* until you know their hearts, then it PALES in comparison. They've carried me. I used to cry saying that, but they have. THEY....have taught me the hard lesson of imperfect parenting. That I don't, WON'T....get it right....but they WILL...somehow....someway....they see my heart. When I embrace this....it becomes magical and superhuman.....because....they watched it all unfold. The pain of the past. The hope for the future. They've seen it. FIRSTHAND *and still they love* I don't claim to understand it. I simply embrace it...and walk in their beautiful grace. #myteengirls #fireandgrace #loveandlearning
