After a day like today...a day of all the girls crying for no reason, stomping off, arguing, hitting, fighting over toys, and just drama...and feeling totally helpless as a parent...wanting to stomp off to my own room...I read this article here
Being a parent can be hard. Ok, it is hard! It is by far the hardest job I have ever had. I don't always know the answers, and sometimes my kids out smart me. I try hard to get everything right, but that is an IMPOSSIBLE task. Just like they won't get everything right...I won't either.
The article is light hearted and tongue and cheek. It was a great read after a day like today.
As a few of my friends have put it...freeing.
Sometimes as parents, we can get so caught up in doing everything "by the book" that we forget to stop and enjoy being with our children....love on them and show them grace the same way God loves and shows us grace.
