A Good Day
The baby had a well-baby checkup today. She's growing good. Looks good and the Dr complimented me on how well she's doing (since she's never been sick and the Dr said her diaper area skin looks wonderful). I also had a nurse compliment me and told me that I "make motherhood look easy" Of course she didn't see my boys about throw each other off the exam bed or the obviously testing look my 4yo gave me when he ripped a page out of a magazine after I specifically told him not too, lol, but oh well. It's still nice to hear such things. I've actually been told I have an amazing amount of patience with them, which I sooooo don't feel, especially when the 2yo is being extra clingy and the 4yo seems to be constantly testing, then the baby just wants to get down and play in places where she obviously can't and gets rather angry about it. I had just such a day over the weekend. But today was actually pretty good, and once the 4yo was sure that I wasn't giving in he behaved very well.

You are doing an awesome job as a mother! I daily pray for wisdom to be the mom I need to be probably more than I pray for anything! I may not have the opportunity to go out on the street and witness to the unsaved out there, but God has placed 2 precious lives in my hands to nurture and train up to love Him. I believe I will be held responsible on judgement day for the job I have done. It is nice to get complimented on well-behaved children. Sometimes we are commented on negatively because of how strict we are on our kids (in church--some just let theirs run around and we don't)but when you hear those comments on their behavior or see it for yourself it makes it so worthwhile!
