Grown Kids

My Mom used to say it was harder raising grown kids than little ones. I didn't know at the time what she meant. Now that mine are grown I understand. It seems like there is always some kind of hurt feelings or drama going on. I tried so hard to raise them to feel loved and cared for and to be good people. And they are good people. I am wandering why it seemed we were all close when they were little but now things are different. I always seem to say the wrong thing or do the wrong thing. Maybe this is just a phase too. Maybe that was how my Mom felt too.
