I Must Be Doing Something Right.
I know I haven't been very good about posting on here again. I have been waiting until something pops into my head and says, "Hey, I should blog about this." Plus my lens cap on my camera is stuck half open, so I am not getting any new pictures right now.
Anyway, on to my point. Every now and then I get discouraged. I think that maybe I am not teaching the boys enough academically or spiritually. They still fight a lot. Which I know some of it is just normal boy behavior and a lot is probably not. However I have noticed this: Our having a new baby has done some growing in the older boys. Sure they have their moments like tonight when Parker needing me to nurse him to sleep disrupted our family game night or when Eman wanted to go hang out with friends but Parker was sleeping and I needed to drive Kodi to football practice. At Park Day on Friday, the boys went off with the other kids while Parker and I visited with the moms. The kids all head back when they notice that Park Day is almost over. They hang out nearby talking while they wait for the moms to say that it is time to go. Both of them came separately over to Parker to say hi and make faces at him. Like they missed him in the hour or so that they were away from him. Then Saturday during Kodi's football game, Kodi came over twice and checked on Parker when he was on the sidelines. Another kid almost backed into me and I kind of made a joke so that he was aware that we were behind him. Kodi said to him, "Watch out! My baby brother is sleeping there." They are very protective of him. Last night we went to Parker's aunt and uncle's house. Parker was getting to the point where he was ready to go home and go to bed. He was a little bit fussy and Kodi was holding him trying to get him happy. Parker's cousin who is two came up and slapped him in the face. Kodi got very upset and started telling her not to hit people. He was getting so mad that I thought that he might hit her. I got him calmed down, but he was still like, "You don't hit a baby that is already fussy." |
