I totally feel ...I am so touched by your decision! I totally feel you on people offering parenting advice... people can be really irritating. But you not only built your own character by apologizing, you also built a tiny bridge to a person you do not have a ton in common with (at least on the surface) and the two of you made the world a little bit better place.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16856375419610730538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-104578977171429876.post-64159203648772322082010-10-23T07:12:12.356-04:002010-10-23T07:12:12.356-04:00Look what I found on fb today from Rick Warren:

But the real learning for me here was that you sought the counsel of Mr. Bug . . . and he was strong enough to tell you the honest truth. I want to commend you for listening to him, and then humbling yourself and acting on it. I give you both kudos. You BOTH did the right thing. I'm proud of you. Thanks for sharing this. :)ring@nc.rr.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14994118625557434043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-104578977171429876.post-77441087405546069352010-10-21T14:56:09.017-04:002010-10-21T14:56:09.017-04:00Maybe I'm hormonal myself but this made me tea...Maybe I'm hormonal myself but this made me tear up a little bit. What a wonderful and selfless person you are. Apoligizing is a hard thing, but doing it when you aren't even sure if you ARE sorry makes it sacrificial. You have such a genuine heart.Mrs. Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03487980202707637014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-104578977171429876.post-80220913241113378962010-10-20T23:08:11.134-04:002010-10-20T23:08:11.134-04:00Becky, you are HUMAN.

Lately, because my life has turned into a WHIRLWIND with a RUNNING 13 month old (I know you feel me), I've become a little on edge, too. I think owning up to our attitudes helps us to be self-aware. That's all you can do-- try to be better! <br /><br />Use that experience to help you take a breather and live in the moment.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13656762883218420578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-104578977171429876.post-49130389726679830752010-10-20T19:36:52.539-04:002010-10-20T19:36:52.539-04:00You're such a sweetheart.

People LOVE to give parenting advice or judge you as a parent and I'm frequently on edge about that. It's just like, 'oh THANK you for all your sage advice...I've just been sitting at home crying in a corner for the extent of my son's life. I had no idea what to do until you came along with your wealth of knowledge on parenting and saved me."<br /><br />Seriously. People just love to dole out advice. You are amazing for even thinking you needed to apologize! <br /><br />Hmm...I'm sounding like a jerk now...Heidi @ Honeybear Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08648486220605431201noreply@blogger.com
