“Life is better being a mom.”
The Importance Of Kindness
It was 6am when my four daughters and I dropped my husband off at the airport this morning, heading out to finish up the last class in his doctoral program. We begin our journey back home, and just moments after we dropped him off, our car started shaking a little bit. I look in the rearview mirror "girls, do you feel the car shaking, or is that just me?" thinking to myself that maybe I am just feeling weird from being overly tired. They quickly respond "yes! What is that mommy?" and seconds later *pop* our tire bursts!!
Be the change
Have you ever thought about children other than your own? Children who have less than yours? Typically our lives are so chaotic as parents doing things for our children that we don’t feel we have extra time to think about children other than our own. I get it, we are constantly pouring out all of our energy and love for our own.... as we should!
Raising Compassionate Kids
Something that has been stirring in me is becoming a better parent. As sweet as my girls are, I know there are areas I can grow in teaching them. While I have wrestled with that thought, this verse came to mind "..... clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience". Yes!!! Exactly what I desire to see in my girls!
