Re-Do's

We are still working (and probably always will be) on some things with the kids that we learned at the ETC conference. I told Jeremy last night that the redo thing applys to me too! My "Try that again with respect." :) :) has turned into, "TRY THAT AGAIN WITH RESPECT.....!!!!" You get the point :).

Today is a new day and I am looking forward to another day with these little people. Seriously, friends, I really think that when they came out all sweet and snuggly I thought they would just BE GOOD. Not sure which fantasyland I was in at the time, but I am a constant work in progress, so why I set my expectations SO high for little people is a mystery to me. I have to give up my perfectionistic tendencies daily around here. It might surprise you that I have some if you come over!

God knew what he was doing when he arranged the birthorder in our house! Had I parented #2 first, I would have been rather full of myself.

I am loving this blog. We were able to hear her speak about their journey at ETC and she is working through the tools taught there with her children. Good stuff!

We are off to lunch with the big kids today and Cara is having a friends over after school. Looking forward to a good day.
