Hard part of parenting

Proverbs 13:24

He who spares the rod hates his son, but he who loves him is careful to discipline him.

I personally do not enjoy spanking my children, many times I have cried right along side of them after I have had to spank them or do a hold therapy with them. I know by disciplining my children when they are young will be helpful in the future.  My children have a respect for authority.  I always say I would rather spank and discipline my young children than to leave it to the cops when they get older.

Being a Christian mama

Proverbs 22:6

Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not part from it.

I know parenting takes a lot of work, both emotional,and physical.  You can choose to withdraw or deposit into your children’s lives.

The Bible and a bag of candy

So we are always trying to make the Bible a resource and fun book to read.  I like to buy a bag of Hershey’s Kisses.  I then have all my kids get their Bibles.  As we gather in our family room, my hubby will call out a book and verse in the Bible, the first one to find it gets a candy tossed to them.  Since we have 5 kids and age range of 4-17, we often make teams so the little ones are included.  If your kids are not able to read yet, you can teach them a verse and each time they can recite it give them a candy.  Lets keep our kids looking up!
