1.888.U GO.GIRL!

I’m gonna call    1.800.WOW.LADY
     Or maybe      1.888. U GO.GIRL!  
We’ve heard from the perfect moms. You know the ones - 3 easy steps to a perfect scholar, how to train your super mathematician, and teach your baby to read before he can sit up on his own.
    I need to share with those moms who put all their energy into strong-willed child/children just to have their little darling break another glass, or throw a toy at their sister’s head. 
    We all have difficult days. Raising children is to say the least a challenge!  There are also many rewards - some days we just have to imagine better days are on the way.
    If it was only our nature to encourage rather than judge and point out faults. I try, but many days, I just don’t know when to close my mouth!  
    Our babies are born with diverse personalities - and what that means is - what worked for the 1st child probably won’t work for the 3rd child. And just because Uncle Fred raised perfect kids, following his sage advice might not be best for yours.
    At the end of the day be satisfied that you did the best you can do. Our children will remember the lessons taught to them as they rely on the Lord and his word.   
      Know God never leaves us, always loves us, and is in control.  Memorize verses that speak to you, like
        ….Proverbs 22:6
Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it.
  He’ll never give you more than you can handle… 
        ….Philippians 4:13
I can do all this through him who gives me strength.

    Remember to enjoy the time you have with them - trust me, its too short. Try to start each day on a positive note, and remember to hug, kiss and appreciate  your precious little ones.
     Be happy for the mammas who look like they have perfect children, and add them to your prayers, the less than perfect day will come to her and she will need your support.
