You know, I always thought that my kids would never do certain things!  Boy did I have a surprise coming for me!  It seems my middle child has been acting out at school.  It scares me that I can't make him what I want him to be, but how happy I am when he makes the decision  to behave a certain way.  I know God is the same way.  I've always just thought I could make my children be Godly and I can make my kids be this or that.  But a wise woman once told me that I'll never be able to make my children faithful.  I can only be an example and be a faithful mother.  I pray fervently for my children every day. God bless them and keep them close to you.  May they seek you earnestly and may I be an example of You.

Amen (that's right! as I just post a blog about watching General Hospital:)
It is a faithbuilding thing to have to trust our children to the Lord. We are told that we can battle for them through our prayer and I am with you--I will go to bat for her daily.
Being a mommy is so hard but so rewarding!!
