Thoughts for a long day

One woman will brag about her children, while another complains about hers; they could probably swap children without swapping tunes”

Saw this quote yesterday and was greatly convicted that I don't want to be the complaining mom, though often I am.

"Lord, give me grace to love my children on the tough days and to treat them as co-heirs of God. Help me to speak words of kindness and to discipline with grace and gentleness."
