They are speaking the language!!
I know sometimes we wonder if our kids are really paying attention in school. I know mine at least hear some things! The boys were playing in their rooms the other day and of course they began to argue about something. I was about to go break up the argument when I hear Luke tell Ian that he is a big dipper and needs to quit dipping in his bucket. It sounded like Luke had it all under control so I held off. A few minutes later Luke told Zeke he was going to have to "clip down" if he didn't straighten up. I believe one of them also told mommy that she needed to be proactive rather than reactive the other day :/ Apparently we have a house full of leaders! Those things are all cute and funny, but it really got me to thinking. What are they hearing from me. If they repeat things at school that they are hearing at home.....is that good or bad?? As parents, we are the leaders in our home. That's a huge job that isn't even close to easy! It's hard to be the Godly parent we need to be sometimes. More often it's easier to just give in rather than go against what the world is doing. My prayer is that I can stand out and have the courage it takes to be that parent.
