Kind of like a rock to the chest. I need to make \finding time\ for my kids more of a priority. Which means I shouldn’t *find* the time, but *make* the time. Thank you for this.

The mindset in our culture today is to consider children a burden. Many who send their children to public schools where the average kid spends over 14,000 seat hours outside the home often find that their kids become strangers. It’s hard for women working outside the home to come home and spend both quantity and quality time with a child on a consistent enough basis to strengthen a relationship.

It’s August and I hear too many public school moms saying they can’t wait until summer is finished and their kids are back in school and out of their hair. It’s very sad. If only they could know the joy of teaching their own children and seeing them grow to real maturity.

You captured those moments so well. I stop myself often and ask, “Did I really just say that?” Thanks for letting me know I’m not alone!

Bravo! I agree 100%!

Of course, I now feel guilty because I said, “Not right now, I’ve GOT to get this done” to my children at least 3 times today. Thanks for the reminder!!!

Guilty as charged! Thanks for reminding me in a new way of that old saying that “more is caught than taught.” Hope, with God’s help, that I can be different today!
