I have a 7-yr-old who has always been a spit-fire. She has learned over time to tame the attitude, but it is still a work in progress. <br /><br />The hardest part for me is sticking to what I say the consequences will be. It would be much easier in the moment to let it go, but definitely harder the next time to try and stop the problem. So a lot of times I'm the "mean Mommy" with her and even get chastised from parents. But I can see the big picture and what I need to do as a parent and I thank you for showing us your strength (and love!) during a tough moment.Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13445049164850471627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14642592.post-65555251702940052772009-05-18T17:01:00.000-04:002009-05-18T17:01:00.000-04:00Sometimes God whispers quietly to me or is silent ...Sometimes God whispers quietly to me or is silent and then sometimes, like today - he yells so loudly it is deafening.

Her point is there are three ways we get in "pits" in life: We sometimes get pushed in unfairly (like Joseph), we sometimes jump in with both feet because of a sin nature...but sometimes we just get closer and closer and closer to the edge that we should not be standing near and slip right in.I'm sure I've had lots of mud on my Crocs in a spiritual sense,too!

My bath water was hot and I asked that she not dip her dolly into my water, as I didn't want her to get burned. She dipped a dolly foot in. As I spoke with her and told her that she openly defied me, in went the back of the baby noggin. Oh Lord give me patience! She ended up in time out. <br /><br />My sister had a baby this weekend and I had her two with me. I had ages 5, 6 and 8 in my home for 2 1/2 days. I didn't sleep and was run ragged with "I'm hungry," "I'm firsty," "They aren't sharing," "[so and so] is being mean," "I want - -," "That's not fair!." And I have to tell you, they all really got along pretty well. Girl, I admire you!Bailey's Leafhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16752350373632902394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14642592.post-63213251640380453262009-05-17T21:13:00.000-04:002009-05-17T21:13:00.000-04:00Can I just say I so admire you!

I cannot imagine trying to raise two more alongside her at the same age. I love reading the stories about them, but know that I pray that you won't get too exhausted- I know how hard that job must be. Thanks for the stories! Enjoy it, it goes so fast.Tracihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05370187839284569839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14642592.post-78989245312306622812009-05-17T20:51:00.000-04:002009-05-17T20:51:00.000-04:00Thank you so much for your comment!

What an amazing story you have - God is sooo good! I'm amazed at how He weaves His power and glory in our lives. Thanks for your encouragement and prayers. I truly appreciate it, and I know my "resting" days are numbered - I can't wait to dive into being a mom again!<br /><br />Love,<br />MLMary Lindseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14126540224026445774noreply@blogger.com
