Re Heart Tying Challenge #3

None of our kids are perfect, and honestly never will be as they and we are both sinners. But trying to do right by them and by God is the best we can do.
My kids doing excellent considering I have one doing each arms work and my feet too. At 4 & 5 I set my expectations high, but they are doing well.
Yesterday was a bit hard for my oldest in the morning so I saw how he woke up and didn't bombard him right away, instead waited till he got some breakfast in in. My younger woke super helpful and even was hear saying "super hero to the rescue!" He got worn out after a couple hours though, so I made him finish a certain job and then I called it a day. We got a ton done. But still had a lot to do today.

They are both obeying much better today, now that we are back to our routine. Their bedroom is clean and they are clean and fed. Now to finish up chores and do a bit of school.

My youngest really likes to play, and get into things, so I have to watch him. He isn't doing it to rebel, he does it after I have asked him to do a task and he finished it, but he didn't come to me afterwards. Instead he starts to play. So I am working on making that an obedience issue.. telling him to come when done.

I am still in pain and can't do much of anything, but they are actually helping more than they are a hindrance, so I am feeling blessed.
