Nobody is perfect only God

There are days where I try to do everything perfectly. And those are the days everything seems to be very not perfect! I want to be the best wife, mom, daugher, sister and friend I can be. To me that means being there for them whenever they need me. In good and bad times. I have friends that no matter what has happened they are the ones I call first. I am lucky to be married to my best friend. To me that means we have no secrets, always talk and let each other know what is going on with our friends and family. It is the trust and communication that has made our almost 12 years of marriage so great.
I have made plenty of mistakes. When Kat was born I was so overwhelmed by having to be in the hospital 4 different times within a 5 week period it drove me almost insane. I felt I had no control over any situation or anything going on in my life. I just wanted to feel "normal". Lucky for me I had a good husband that knew once I was feeling better and got home for good, and yes the pregnancy hormones settled down, I would be back to normal. It took a while but I did.
Koran realized nobody is perfect. Things happen in our lives and we wish we could change that one moment or that one thing. We can't. We can say "I'm sorry" and move on. God says once you asked forgiveness your sin is forgotten. As far as the east is from the west. WOW! If only I could forget it like He does.
In my 35 years there have only been a couple times I wish things had gone different or I had done something different. Those are the times I beat myself up and then I remember. When it counted I made the right decisions. When it counted I asked forgiveness. When it counted I admitted I was wrong. God forgave me so isn't it time I forgive myself?
I think of all the things I want to teach our daughter to make her a great person. One of those things will be to remember no one is perfect, but God always forgives. Just be the best person you can be. Remember that words can destroy a spirit or build a spirit up so choose what you say to someone wisely. Never take for granted another day with someone you love. Always have a smile for everyone. And yes, even your mom is not perfect, never has been. That doesn't mean I am not the best wife and mom I can be. It just means I may make a few mistakes along the way. And it's ok....nobody is perfect...only God.
