They drive me batty. It takes all the patience I have and then some to get through the day. Thankfully we can have confidence in that the Lord is in control of all things, even our crazy kids. So keep up the good work and keep living for HIM.Rachaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11395734853162524799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7598158775140531703.post-5682509498038453572011-08-08T11:50:34.836-07:002011-08-08T11:50:34.836-07:00I have one of those spark plugs too - she's 6 ...I have one of those spark plugs too - she's 6 and some days it takes every fiber of my being to remember that those things that are driving me batty right now will be the tools necessary for when she is older... that is, if she makes it to older... it's touch and go right now... lol.<br /><br />I'll be praying for ya - but know that you aren't alone.

It is so hard as a parent to ever see this. I can relate to how you feel. Some evenings I kneel in prayer and tell Heavenly Father I have failed again. (And again and again) And then I receive peace on some of these nights that indeed I have not. Line upon line. Step by step we (the kids and I) are both teaching and strengthening and learning together. You are awesome. Hang in there with that strong willed boy. I have a two year old one myself. :) They like to keep us on our toes!Tashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03697629062368448156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7598158775140531703.post-86715551118901048952011-08-08T10:43:40.354-07:002011-08-08T10:43:40.354-07:00Love this attitude...keep it up girl!!!Love this attitude...keep it up girl!!!Mama Mimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03956579568061258585noreply@blogger.com
