what do you think is the greatest achievement in life?

Right now I feel awfully low and lacking in confidence. I quitted my job seven months ago to be a full-time mom and a wife. I find it rather difficult and sometimes I think of going back to work but I could just not find it in my heart to leave my three kids behind. Sometimes I would reflect on what is going on with my life in the middle of the afternoon and ask myself what have I done that is great so far? The answer lies in the eyes of my kids, they are my greatest achievement, my triump, my joy, my hopes, my everything…but also they are my greatest failure, failure in such a way that even the simplest things I cannot provide it to them simply because I am poor, I have no money. My life is full of mistakes, and repeats but when they came into my world, everything has changed…that is why I promised that I will be a good mother to them and never leave them again.

it is a very tough decision indeed and going to the US is an achievement most of us would want to make a reality...i hope you get reunited with your son soon.
