I have been very good with this goal. While I may have shown my irritation at times, I have not “snapped” at them, despite some stressful situations. I will continue to work on this goal as a subset of “Be the best mom I can be”, though, as it’s something I need to be mindful of at all times.

Ok, this one I’ve done. I’m not generally “impatient” with my kids, but I do find that if I’m stressed (which has increased lately) or short of sleep, I snap at the kids a little more. I’m much, much better than I was a few years ago. Not that I was a child abuser, but I raised my voice too often and sometimes said some unkind things. Fortunately for me, they haven’t held it against me.
Anyhow, I don’t want to mark this one off quite yet. I’ll wait until I’ve been more consistent.
