Snippets...on new parenting challenges

While discussing with a new friend the anxiety I've had with each new phase or milestone in my children's lives, I remarked that I've been surprised that I've managed to do all the things that seemed insurmountable...birthing, breastfeeding, diapering, socializing, schooling. ''You get it done because you have to, there's not really much choice,'' I remarked.

She replied with these wise words:  ''Set the bar low. If they're still alive and breathing, then you're doing ok.''

Yes.
