I hope I have been there

As I watched this message, I began to question myself as a parent. Have I been there ENOUGH for my children? Have I really listened to them, have I taught them things that will leave a lasting impression? I HOPE I have... I have given my all when I could, even through tough times. I hope they realize that I will try my hardest as a parent and love them unconditionally. I as pondered on this awhile, I felt  reassurance come over me. I feel like I have been there, but as we move forward, I am going to make it a point to be there MORE than ever, and listen to every hope, dream, and fear they have. As I watch them become young adolescents, I know of the temptations they will face and I want to help guide them in making the right choices when they will be so impressionable.
