The transformation

    Okay so that title sounds a TAD more grandious than it really is LOL.  I have lots to blog about but will have to do it a little later on tonight when things are a bit quieter.  But as of late our 6yo Frankie has been noticeably both whiny and lazy.  I admittedly have been struggling with the raising of these children, so I went to my hubby.  I asked him what he thought needed to be done to help with some of the issues Frankie has been having.  Firstly, he has said that I need to get up earlier and get the day going earlier. And to get Frankie's school schedule back to normal.  Just the schedule in general.  When we were back in TN he had to clean his room, feed and water the dogs and chickens all before breakfast.  And he was 4 and 5 then.  And here it seems like he does nothing.  So Clay said firstly the schedule has to become top priority.  Then second he decided that he wasn't doing his part in raising Frank.  I have long since thought this but have really tried with the Lord's help to not nag ( big achievement for me) about it.  And Jesus being so faithful has worked wonders in this area as of late.  Clay in the last couple weeks has really taken sweet Frankie under his wing.  They have been working together everyday in the garage workshop.  I have never seen Frankie so happy as when he came in and told me of the glass that Daddy was melting with the torch and how it exploded everywhere lol.  Of course Mommy held her tongue about how dangerous it was.  And when Daddy put Frank up on the HIGH landing to shop vac the cobwebs Mom held her tongue and tears in her extreme terror over watching it all.  But already there has been a huge transformation in Frankie's behavior.  More now than ever I realize the importance of both father's in the lives of sons but of us doing everyday things with the littles.  Now to do my part and with the Lord's help will bring around some serious change in our family.  Hope to blog here a little more tonight.
