Sometimes You Just Have to Face the Trolls

June 20, 2013

“Mommy, can I watch Tinkerbell?” My three-year-old clutched a stuffed puppy in her hand and climbed beside me on the sofa.

“Sure, we can watch a little TV before bedtime.” I grabbed the remote and flipped to my girls’ latest favorite—Tinkerbell and the Lost Treasure.

“But, Mom, can you skip the part about the trolls? I don’t like the trolls.”

The trolls? Ah, yes. There’s a scene where Tinkerbell tries to cross a bridge guarded by two nasty oafs who threaten to chew her for dinner.

Heck, I’d like to skip the trolls, too. I’ve known a few trolls in my life. You, too?

Today I’m sharing some mid-week encouragement on Tricia’s blog, Raising Humans. Her focus is on personal growth through parenting, which we moms know isn’t always pretty. I hope you’ll join me there to read the full story.
