Xaleia - no, bless you for being honest and giving me advice. I will be the 1st to admit I am not the most sweet tempered person in the world.. and I am impulsive.. and sensitive.. which is why it hurts all the more because I am trying so darned hard to keep things in. I dare not think of myself being an exceptional mommy, any more than anyone of you here. I just know that I love them so much and I try to do my best all the time, and that is all I can do.
I will try smiling at anyone and everyone again.. who knows, even if someone has a bad thing to say, they will be taken aback by the smile and refrain from saying anything.. Oh well, a smile doesn't cost me anything
I am sorry about that man.. That sounds so random LOL! I am just upset any of us have to deal with anything like this.
Again, thank you for the advice. And reminding me that kindness will most times beget kindness. I forget that all the time.
