Today I apologized to my 14-year-old son.
As adults, we think like adults—and sometimes we forget the 14-year-old perspective. He accepted my apology with grace. I poured into him, told him how proud I am, and named things he’s doing now that I never did at his age.
I’m not a perfect parent. But one thing I’ve learned—and hold proudly—is the power of saying I’m sorry, even to our children. It matters. They matter.
They are tiny humans learning and growing every day… and in many ways, so am I, as a mom. 💛
