Hate Mail

A couple of weeks back my wife received her first hate mail!

Not because she's famous, or because she's a strong Bush supporter (which she's not!), but simply because she happens to be the mother of a 6 year old boy called Skylar. Yep, my son was hacked off with his mother and decided to express exactly how he was feeling. I love it!

(not sure if you can make it out, buts it's a heart crossed out and a mother crossed out...Sweet!)

It's not easy being a mom! On top of the "normal" parenthood responsibilities, we are homeschooling both of our kids so it REALLY isn't easy. Having said all of this, we wouldn't swop it for anything in the world - the joy far outweighs the pain!

At the time Charise really struggled with this little note, it was hard not for her to take it personally - but experience tells us that these little "freak outs" are not really meant and there is Grace to move on.

Here's to Moms!

(by the way, the picture of Skylar was taken when he had the flu...he doesn't always look like this...just in case you're wondering.)
