Climber
So we have a little climber on our hands. Tables, toy boxes, baby gates, rocking chairs! You name it, Molly will climb it. I caught her on the table one day with her hand literally in the cookie jar. She is very strong not to mention strong willed even at 16 months.
I gleaned a touching lesson from authors and speakers, Jim and Lynne Jackson as they presented some insightful information at one of my MOPS meetings last year. They suggested that parents try to see the goodness in their child’s current personality “challenge”.
i.e. If you have an older child always tattling or telling the others how naughty they were the parent would try to see strengths of honesty and justice.
So my dear Molly what strengths can I pray for?
How about an adventurous spirit, willingness to learn and sense of determination!
Okay, but for now…Get OFF the table!!
Bible, Book of Genesis, Chapter 49, Verse 22
“Joseph is a fruitful vine, a fruitful vine near a spring, whose branches climb over a wall.”
