We're now 2 weeks into school and my older 2 boys (Aaron, 10th grade and Justen, 7th) are finally getting their grades posted online. This has always been difficult for me. I am a perfectionist in many ways, and its hard to see not so perfect scores on assignments or tests.
Its a struggle because I don't always know the appropriate way to be a mom in this area. I need to encourage my kids to do their best, but also accept when they have, and still have gotten a poor grade. It's not always easy to decifer if its a lack of understanding or lack of effort.
Hopefully this year, things won't be so stressful in this area. Lord, give me wisdom.
