“I suppose we all have our buttons, our triggers that pushed hard enough, would make even the calmest person flip.”
“We are all mirrors for each other – let us give thanks for our button-pushers for they show us our most potent triggers!”
“we can learn to trust our maternal selves and to have faith in the innate goodness and purity of our children - even when we feel overwhelmed and the kids are pushing all our buttons. we can support one another....we can be understanding of each other and easier on ourselves.”
