When can you say that you've done your best as a Mother?

I can see lots of responsibilities in store as I am now near the part of life called marriage. As we grow old we neglect the sacrifices that our Mothers have done for us. And when we reach that point in life we begin to reminisce the days with our mothers; how difficult or complex it was to face all those responsibilities yet they still manage to face it grace and confidence. For the mothers out there, when can you say that you've done your best as a Mother?

Oh gosh yes, I have two of the most wonderful and respectful children ever. As a single parent, not only did I work full time and half I was a super duper mom. I literally hault my entire life and made sure I was a Mother that ended and was all. I absolutely did not know what it was like to hang out with girl friends as my children were completely my priority. I do not know what it is like to have issues from my children. Although I was so blessed with them, I apparently did something right. So I can honestly answer you question with YES! Especially someone like me who never had a mother of her own per say. So I went far from the norm to make sure my children would grow up to be a mirror of me. Motherhood of course is not over for me as my children and I have a beautiful relationship and understand that I am the boss and their friend too.
