I can’t provide my kids a big home yet or fancy vacation yet but I will tell you I am there for them 24-7 and well that alone is greater than anything money can buy.
They never doubt their love or comfort or needs. I am always there for them no matter what. They have changed so much lately. They see my unconditional love for them and all three keep thanking me for always being there for them.
My oldest hugs me 100 x a day. My middle one would love to be by my side all day everyday. My youngest keeps kisses me up just because.
I never make them feel like they are too much. As a single parent working and homeschooling and having the kids all day everyday can be a lot. I have grown into embracing the role because the reward is amazing.
When my girls walk in my door I see a level of comfort and safety and love in them that I provide. It’s easy. Parents it’s easy to be a good parent. Not sure why some struggle with it.
Your job is to provide a safe easy non stressful atmosphere for your kids. At all times. To be attentive.
When they are at their dad’s or grandparents or anywhere but with me I assure them I always one call away no matter what. It’s not because I don’t trust where they are I do it because they need to know I am there for them no matter when and whenever and wherever. I need to provide a safe place at all times to them. Their lives have changed so much that by me providing stability and comfort it assures them that their needs are being met at all times no matter where they are.
Everyone needs that person they feel safe and protected with. If you can be that person then you have helped add security to someone’s life.
