It's almost like I get to watch my future best friends grow up. I get to help guide them to be what they want to be. I get to teach them about morales and right from wrong. I get to help their strengthens shine and work on their flaws. It's not easy and yet it's so rewarding.
They will hate me at times and I am ok with that. As long as I keep them safe and smart I don't need to be liked always. At the end of the day it's nice to just hang with them and be silly. It's nice for them to see a side of me they don't get to see when I am being "Mom"
