Growing with the kids

Growth Spurts! is an encouraging post about having a godly attitude to changes in your children.

If I pray for a growth spurt, for ideas on how to help them, to make this a fun new phase, and to appreciate their new needs, then the change on my part usually clears up a lot of things! I am not saying that this eliminates the need for discipline, but it makes it gloriously clear cut and sweet. My attitude is no longer a player, and it is no longer a big “situation” but just normal life.

I have already found it challenging to adjust to changes in Elnathan - and he is only nine weeks old (ten tomorrow!).
