There's really nothing I'm more proud of than my kids. I have three very amazing, very different kids that I learn from every single day. I'm so excited that this weeks post is written by my 17 year old daughter, Raena:
I had an epiphany about relationships today. There are a lot of different relationships that people have to work with daily; friends, family members, a boyfriend/girlfriend, and more. As a girl in high school I am dealing with all of these types of relationships everyday. They are all affecting me. Something that is becoming very difficult for me is keeping my relationships separate and not letting them interfere with eachother. I can't let my relationship with my mom affect my relationship with my bestfriend. I can't let my relationship with any boy affect my relationship with my mom, and so on. My point is that it is hard for me to keep a relationship positive when another one is turning so negative. But I am gonna learn to keep them separate so I can be a good, happy, positive, friend, daughter, sister, cousin, etc.
Raena, keep doing what you are doing, baby girl. I love you so much!

Raena, what a thoughtful and well expressed passage. You are so much more mature than I was at your age. You are just amazing! G&G are very proud of you and love you very much! Onawaygram
We all have that same issue, and I agree with Onawaygram. You are way more mature than I was too. And just as one relationship can bring you down, one relationship can also lift you up. Focus on the people and things that make you happy.
