Letting Mama Out of The Box

Over the years I have mellowed out and lots of things that used to drive me crazy or make me mad just don't phase me anymore.  However lately all I've heard is how I would have never let my kids get away with the things my grandson does.  They're right, but do I risk letting the old mama out of her box?  She isn't someone who would go back in quietly!  Are they really ready to have the old me back?  Will I wind up looking for another place to live?  Until a few short years ago I didn't choose my words as wisely as I do now.  Once upon a time I didn't care whose feelings got hurt.  I said what I meant and meant what I said.  I didn't cut to many folks a whole lot of slack.   Humm, think I need to pray over this one real hard.  I know my grandson would be angry with me for a while, but he would soon come around to my way of thinking.  My daughter-in-law and son might get real upset with me, but that's life.  Sometimes you live to regret the choices you make.
