WISDOM WEDNESDAY

"A wise woman builds her house, but with her own hands the foolish woman one tears hers down."  Proverbs 14:1
Building as in cleaning, teaching the children, sticking to a schedule, and having an attitude of  thankfulness and grace.
Tearing down as in being lazy, letting school fall behind, not staying on schedule, and not being thankful or gracious toward husband and children.
I am talking to myself, here.

Meghan is doing a better job of sticking to school work!

TEACHING TUESDAY

  What am I going to teach my girls today?  Hopefully, the fact that I am going to get a root canal done will teach them to have better dental hygiene habits then I did as a young person.  But seriously, when the day is done, and they lay their heads on their pillows, what will I have taught them today?  Hopefully, that they can trust me, that I will be there for them, most of all, that they are precious to God and He wants to bless them. I often forget that He wants the same for me; I don't do the best He knows I can with what He gives me.  He loves me just as I love my girls, only better.  I have an awesome responsibility to teach them about loving God, being thankful, and "chasing joy".  I admit I have been lax in this job, but maybe today, "the first day of the rest of my life", I can begin to improve.
