I guess boot camp is taking up quite a bit of my time here! Again, it's been a while since I've updated! Carri...if you're reading this, please email me to let me know your success with the lying! I can't seem to find your email address anywhere-even on your blog! Thanks! Leona is doing great keeping her underwear nice and dry now! It's so odd how that minor little thing that we wanted her to work on opened up quite a few more issues. Mostly it is the lying. It is unbelieveable how many silly things she is lying about! It seems that when we tell her she should not be doing something (wetting her pants, lying etc.), she decides with all her little might that she will do it even more! Sometimes it's almost amusing-much of the time it's quite annoying!! It certainly has made me much better at being consistent when I discipline my kids! My new favorite encouraging Scripture verse has become Galatians 6:9-Let us not be weary in well doing for in due season we shall reap if we faint not. Sometimes I do feel like "fainting"!! I think I mentioned this before in one of my posts! We are making progress though-eventually she does decided that we are really serious and she needs to get with the program! She doesn't fuss about food anymore and I've even heard her say that she likes green beans! And now she is keeping her underwear dry (I can't for the life of me figure out why on earth anyone would pee their pants just because Mom and Dad said they needed to get to the bathroom quicker!!--it doesn't sound like much fun to me!)--I am often reminded of the verse where Paul mentions that the things he wants to do, he doesn't do and the things he doesn't want to do, he does. (Sorry, I am too lazy to walk back to the kitchen and get my Bible and give you the exact verse and reference for that one!) Soon we will be starting school. I've been procrastinating for weeks! I wanted to start at the beginning of August but we are just having too much fun with boot camp!! No, actually, we have been canning and sewing and doing all kinds of fun stuff that I could count for school if I would at least write it on the calendar!! Well I better get going! Have a great night! |
