My Supports

Three supports that help me most of the time are my family, my friends, and my children’s school and care programs. My family and friends are people I can talk to about whatever is on my mind. My husband enables my children to go to the schools I want them to go to and shows my children the male aspect of spiritual life. He helps keep the house organized and makes sure we have a roof over our head and food on the table.  Schools help me to teach my children, and child cares enable me to help other children.

What if one of my children died?  I would probably find some way to blame myself. I would want my husband and children not to blame me, however. I am glad that I could talk to my friends about it, and they would accept me and try to make me feel better.  I might also need to talk to a professional, and I might need some time off of work.

I am so lucky that nothing like this has ever happened to me. My sister knows a mom whose two week old baby died this week. Please pray for her,
