Your little one is such a dear - how I miss those sweet little Ambleside faces! But, I am thankful for more time with the sweet faces of my children :)<br /><br />I have one child in particular who regularly struggles with anger, and I have yet to discover a one-size-fits-all solution. Sometimes I do something that helps, and sometimes I just feel helpless. Often I find that if I send her to her room and take a breather, pray for help, that the Holy Spirit is faithful to show me what she needs at that moment. <br /><br />Love to you, too!Kendrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12809451724799320262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2061257890645824706.post-43274087402340434492012-02-21T15:25:08.437-08:002012-02-21T15:25:08.437-08:00Hi Kendra,
Just what I needed today after thinkin...Hi Kendra,<br /><br />Just what I needed today after thinking about my 7 yr old. She is a delight - loving, thoughtful, intelligent, etc. but has these upset, angry moments. I always figure that it's the struggle between wanting to the little one and wanting to be big. <br />Interesting that you should say "a unique person with a heart that wants to live well." On Sunday, she had to stand up in the front of the church, with us (her parents) and other children with their parents for a blessing for those about to go through First Communion. She was asked by Father a pretty broad question, "What do you want?" Without hesitation, she said, "To live a good life." When we left, she said she meant to say that she wants to live a Godly life. Ahh, how we all stuggle with that, no matter if we are 7 years or 29+ - but I am so happy for her that she recognizes it. <br />Love to All of you in Boerne (and if you have any more tips on helping them not get angry, please send them my way!)<br />Kristin in FBGUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14011403923937337452noreply@blogger.com
