I'm one of those people who sucks at taking compliments. However I do get compliments on my cooking and baking. I'm no chef. I don't make fancy food. I make good, yummy, wholesome food that you want to eat, and then come back for a second helping. I sometimes follow recipes, and sometimes just wing it. Sometimes my food fails, both from recipes and from trying new things. But mostly, I am a good cook.
The other thing that I get compliments on often is my writing. (this post excluded) Sometimes I really have a way with words. There are days I finish writing something and feel very proud of how it turned out, other days (like today) that it's just an exercise in getting something done. NaBloPoMo has the ability to make me write post that are equally amazing, and total crap. But when it's good, it's good.
there are other things people compliment me on, but since I don't always agree with them... I will let that be. (and that, my friends is one of the MANY reasons I'm in therapy.)
I would like to compliment you on your parenting. Whether you know it or not you are an amazing mother. You can been fighting for Ruby since before she was conceived and you've never stopped. I'm sure you have bad moments and even bad days but from what I can tell you are amazing.
