And then i think.... If so, i am FAILING miserably!
Here's a prime example.... boys are just different than girls. Bottom line. I am learning to accept that they will never be as easy as girls. They wrestle, they fight, they go FULL force 24/7. They say things like "poopie" just so they can laugh at themselves. Girls would NOT do this. Well, most wouldn't anyway...
Girls also wouldn't take this.....
and make their Daddy's have to do this......
And then have the nerve to giggle everytime the situation was discussed. Now you are probably thinking, "that ELI! he is a sneaky little thing." But let me tell ya, it was the FIVE year old Jackson who SOOOOOO knew better. His cousin Leah came running upstairs to deliver this message, "Aunt Rachel! Jackson put that thing that holds the toilet paper down the toilet!" Yep.... when i went RUNNING down to save the day.... it was too late.... he had FLUSHED the toilet (i guess to see what would happen...) and it WENT DOWN!. Soooo, when his Daddy came home from work, he had a new project to do.... take the toilet off the floor completely to get the rod back out.....
sigh......
boys are just different. I am learning to accept it. Please pray with me for that patience i need.....
amen.
