Got that one from your parents. I also picked up some good things here and there from the Babywise II book. I have heard that it helps to read a book on parenting from time to time to stay encouraged when it gets busy (also from your mom). :) Love you!Christinanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-747990468719074509.post-20126959559094681652010-05-22T15:28:24.295-04:002010-05-22T15:28:24.295-04:00I haven't read too many parenting books, so I&...I haven't read too many parenting books, so I'll have to get back to you on that.<br /><br />Happy 6 months!!

Realizing God loves them more than we do and ultimately is the one protecting them is priceless. We definitely have a job to do and we will fail on many levels but God's grace is more than sufficient. Pray Pray Pray...He will guide you!<br />Have a great weekend!<br />LydiaCateLydiaCatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17591109051055865183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-747990468719074509.post-46744288031086274762010-05-22T12:19:12.143-04:002010-05-22T12:19:12.143-04:00@ Michelle and Heather: Thanks!

You have to be praying for God's grace in your kid's lives. <br />@Katie: I will have to check that book out!Aliciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09258122979960993351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-747990468719074509.post-63070942790916335442010-05-21T17:25:19.895-04:002010-05-21T17:25:19.895-04:00What a beautiful gift from God you have - I am gla...What a beautiful gift from God you have - I am glad you are having so much fun! Parenting should be a joy - despite the ever present adjustments! I always find that just as we leave one stage and enter a new one that I've been looking forward to, we really are just exchanging one set of challenges for another! Children really keep you on your toes!<br /><br />I agree with Michelle - time in the Word of God and on my knees in prayer are my most valuable parenting tools - and I also love 'For Instruction in Righteousness' for when my heart or the children's hearts are in need of a 'tune up' and I can't find the passage! It's a handy look up tool - every heart issue is addressed from a Biblical standpoint in a brief but complete way.Heather Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13563913535839786305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-747990468719074509.post-37307092900234925382010-05-21T16:41:09.347-04:002010-05-21T16:41:09.347-04:00Oh my goodness!

I smiled when I read your post this morning because I recently told my husband that I was going to throw out all my parenting books (I own A LOT) because now that my 2 older children have hit adulthood (so they think-18 & 19)I'm scratching my head in frustration over the efforts I've put into parenting. Long story short, books are good, but prayer is the best investment :)Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06710547723262207361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-747990468719074509.post-35640863100789366792010-05-21T12:16:36.294-04:002010-05-21T12:16:36.294-04:00Precious photos!Precious photos!Inspired2cookhttp://www.inspired2cook.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-747990468719074509.post-52941164568567463632010-05-21T11:23:03.755-04:002010-05-21T11:23:03.755-04:00oh my.
