Dear Sophie
I’ve hoped with earnest (that’s fancy for a great amount) expectation that you are learning the importance of obedience.
So perhaps you can understand the perplexed (that’s fancy for unsure) look on my face last night after . . .
You argued endlessly with me about brushing your teeth. And then once again when you could not figure out how open your new tube of toothpaste to remove the foil and I asked you to hand it to me. And then when I insisted that I was going to tell Dad and that you would indeed have a consequence for not listening, you tossed the tube of toothpaste on the counter and said, “there. I was just opening the top for you. Fine. You can open it.”
And I then explained to you that you need to listen and obey right away. But then you began waving your hands wildly while you expressed to me that you, “just wanted to open it.”
So I reminded you of this verse, “Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right (Ephesians 6:1).” And then you said,
“Mom! I’m FOUR!”
I absolutely love that child!! She really really reminds of Becca, my youngest. She is sweet and funny and full of sass!! When she learned to write her name, she found a black sharpie and wrote her name on her white bedroom door! In the midst of my freaking out, lecturing her, telling her what her consequence would be, and trying to figure out how I was going to get it off without painting the whole door, she told me that she was really tired of getting in trouble when all she was trying to do was make sure everyone would know which bedroom was hers…and she really didn’t think it was fair to get in trouble for that…after all, it was her RIGHT to claim what was hers. She was FIVE at the time!!! My mother thought this was absolutely hilarious, of course!!
Haaaaaaaaa! LOL! Guess she told you. 🙂 She cracks me up.
First off I want to say great blog! I had a quick question which I’d like to
ask if you don’t mind. I was interested to find out how you center yourself and clear your head before writing.
I have had a hard time clearing my thoughts in getting my
thoughts out there. I truly do take pleasure in writing however it just seems like the first
10 to 15 minutes are generally lost just trying to figure
out how to begin. Any ideas or hints? Many thanks!
