Hi Lynn,
Please don't. You seem like such a remarkable woman to me. From reading your posts it's no mystery to me why your husband would love you. And how could anyone who does what you do for your little cousin be a failure in any possible way, especially as a mum. What an amazing example you are to your kids. I remember when you first posted about what you were doing, and how fiercely determined you were that it was the right thing to do. Honestly I was in awe of you. Still am in fact. Juggling a hubby, home, kids, work, the other family responsibilities, and your health is just such a big thing and I so admire all of you that somehow manage it.
Nobody is perfect and trying to live up to others' expectations of perfection and what you should be only puts more pressure on yourself. Just being 'good enough' in most areas of our life is in fact the best we can be. For me, a spotless house comes a poor second to the obvious love, caring, passion and compassion that you have.
Take care Lynn
