Being a mother is a big calling. I am completely responsible for my sweet babies, how they grow up, how they act, and how they turn out. That is a lot of pressure, especially is this day and age where there are so many bad influences at every turn. We focus on the positive things, work on becoming better people, and being good influences on each other and those around us. My kids are so young still – my oldest will turn 10 this year – and my second daughter turned 7. They have so much ahead of them and so many dreams that they want to reach. I am here to empower them and help them. I am talking about never ending dedication and putting them first as it shows in the video.
My kids tell me about their dreams and we everything we can to make that happen. We put them in sports, dance, music and many other things so that they can try everything and figure out what they like the most. Once the choose – we do everything we can to help them reach their potential.
My All-Star Daughter works hard and makes us proud. She listens, and tries her best and understands what it takes to work harder and be better. My husband and I both have parents that did the same for us. We grew up playing sports and were very competitive. My parents taught me from when I was little, put me in camps, I worked with my coaches and worked my hardest in Basketball. I was able to achieve some of my dreams with their help. We have passed that on to our kids. We teach them, work with them, help them, and support them. It makes so much difference when the parents are involved in their children's lives.
I would love to hear how you "Keep Good Going" by sharing a life lesson or story of your own about how the video applies to your life. Learn more about how New York Life can help you and your family Keep Good Going.
Love this! thanks for sharing!
We are raising our grandson as our own son. He knows nothing different right now. We will tell him one day and I just hope and pray it all turns out okay. We want the best for him and this is how we are doing it…by stepping in and being mommie and daddy.
My little girl is going to start with the special needs auxiliary of the local soccer team next season… I think she will enjoy it.
I think it’s important as parents that we let our kids follow their interests and encourage them to try new things.
I love this campaign. I agree. Being a mom is the most important job.
Congrats to your daughter, that is amazing, what a huge accomplishment!
I make it a point to not miss their events and I support and encourage them in what they choose to do. That’s the best I can do as a parent. 🙂
I always try to encourage my chldren. I try to set good examples, and shoe them that one person can help make a difference.
I agree that we should be involved as much as we can in our kids lives. I volunteer in their schools all the time and I never miss a sporting event!
