What's your secret?

I don't know if I have a secret really. I just did the opposite of everything my parents did.
I figured I was a wild teenager who ended up out of control and on the streets really young...so obviously their way didn't work.
I spend lots of time with him...I know who his friends are I create a nice environment here in our home for them to hang out in...but I think most of all, I have always let him know that he didn't come with an instruction manual and I'm doing the best I can...so I think he realizes I am human and gives me some slack as a mom because of it! LOL
I'm thankful to God that I have a great son. His name, Nathan, is Hebrew for "gift"
