Growing Up
Our kids are growing up all too quickly. As if I needed the reminder, JR walked up to me this afternoon and said, "Look, Mom, I'm getting hairs in my nose like Daddy! Can you see them?"
I am a home-making, homeschooling, home-cooking, Christian, wife, mother, and friend, striving to be the Proverbial woman (though not always succeeding!). I live with my husband, S, and children, JR, M, A, and N. Though we are currently in the military, we are striving to live simply and learn new skills, with the ultimate goal of self-sufficient homesteading after retirement.
Success is not a process of spontaneous combustion. You must do something to start the fire!
Humility is not thinking less of yourself, but thinking of yourself less. -- Rick Warren
When you feel yourself getting irritated or frustrated with your spouse or children, take a quick moment to say a little prayer of "Thanks" for the blessing of having them in your life, and for being given the opportunity to raise and train them.
Christianity is not a religion; it is a relationship. Which do you have?
Do your children TRULY have your heart? ..........................................
