Finally got back into the groove and read my Bible reading plan last night this Matt. Were reading from Proverbs 13 and when Matt read this verse,
Whoever spares the rod hates his son, but he who loves him is diligent to discipline him.
Proverbs 13: 24
This makes me feel like a better mom when I have to punish. Yesterday, Jonathan got in trouble and I sent him to his room and he was crying and I heard him say to Ethan that I didn't love him anymore. I was heart broken to hear him say that. I went directly to his room and should have read this passage to him, but instead, I hugged him and tried to explain how I will always love him, even though there are times I don't like him very much. If only they knew how it hard is for a parent to disciple your children sometimes.
My day was crazy today with a bridal shower and Jonathan's preschool picnic, but they kids napped, had fun and we even met some new people at the picnic. On to tomorrow, where we will finally get another family day.
