There is a lot about me that isn't perfect and I've thought of many things that I could list. But, when I turned 36, I decided to give up Coke for the whole year. For me, this is big - I was a daily Coke person. Saturday, after almost a month Coke-free, I failed. I had a Large Vanilla Coke from Sonic. It was a weak moment.
I was embarrassed as a parent because of my son's behavior at soccer practice. There on my own with two younger children in tow, my oldest refused to participate. Nothing I could say or do would persuade him and his behavior was becoming more and more obstinate. So, rather than battle it out in front of the other parents, I loaded everyone up to return home. AND the van wouldn't start. It was a low moment that ended in tears.
So, I failed in parenting and in my Coke fast. It happens.
