What Kind Of Mom Am I?

I saw this video a few days ago.  Its about how mothers see themselves and judge their performance as parents.   It's sweet and touching.  It's also demonstrative of how people are so hard on themselves.  I'm generally NOT that way.  I tend to see everything from a positive place and I pretty much think I do the best I can and I don't have too many doubts---nor, frankly, much time to devote to fretting about such things. 

But....it did get me thinking about what I would want to hear my boys say about me.   Sure, I'd love to hear that I'm great to snuggle with and all that.  And that they love me.  But for me, I have to say that I want my kids to think about me when I'm gone and never ever leave out the word or thought that they just plain had fun with me.  Fun.  To me, fun is love.  It's joy and it's sharing of the best of life so that when life is not at its best you know right where to go. 

To that end, I give you....PUMPKIN SMASH!!
