Mischief


"1.conduct or activity that playfully causes petty annoyance." -according to Dictionary.com

Today was a day full of mischief. I don't know all the factors of this issue just yet, it is too fresh, but i had a less than perfect day. Julia is displaying her human nature very well today (saying in a nice way that she was down right annoyingly naughty.) Anyway, i am tired. Dave will come home soon from playing squash and then we will be able to sit and talk through what needs to be done differently on our part and hers to make her understand the sour state of her heart today. It is so true that when we only deal with Behaviour, the problems don't go away....for some reason we forget that behaviour begins in the HEART and that is where we must go in order to turn her dear sweet attitude towards a greater good.

So. if you think of me in the next day or so, pray that i will have enough brains and enough heart to think of the proper discipline and to act on those measures in love.

Thanks folks.

Sue we are praying for you guys. I know you will get through this. Things can be hard now, but remember that the Lord is with you and will be there to guide you.

Children always test us, and we learn how to deal with them, as they learn to deal with us. Being pregnant sure is trying on us women. I know that it is very tiresome, and trying to deal with a young one who is also trying.
I know you can do it! Together as a family you will make it!

Hugs from our house to yours
