What's your Mommy Fail?

I am a human so I make mistakes... none bother me as much as the ones I make as a parent. Do I coddle too much? Not enough? Have I done everything I could to raise a good person? I feel I have but there have been so many mistakes/mishaps along the way.

Truth be told the pressure I put on myself to be the best mom is the biggest pressure. I know my kids will find success and be happy well adjusted adults. Why do I pile on the pressure? I think it is because as my children get older I see less of a need for me to parent. They know right from wrong and they make sound decisions. What does that mean for me? My favorite title is mom.

I think my mommy fail is trying to be successful in a career that I had no passion for and letting my children see that. Life is about making choices and at times the choices I have made have not been good ones. While this can be considered a mommy fail I believe that by seeing my fail at something this has geared my children to never settle for less than they deserve. So is it really a fail? I think not. There is only failure when you don't learn from your experiences or you give up. This mom isn't giving up and I refuse to not learn from my mistakes.
