This is exactly how I have tried to raise my kids, and yet she still has found a bit of trouble. I copied this and sent it to her(without the photo)...I hope you don;t mind. It was the best way I knew how of getting my feelings across. Thank you...

If what you want for your child is for them to be happy, then you are most likely doing them a great disservice. And most importantly.. train up a child in the way that they should go, and when they are old, they will not leave it. You're a wise woman and a wonderful mom! Do know that, at age 9 1/2, my boy still wants me to sit by him on the bed at night; we discuss God and good and salvation. I pray over him, and he will STILL kiss me goodbye in front of people at school. Time is fleeting, but I do believe that every minute you put into earnest parenting buys you more....

My favorite line is "...it's better to be wise than smart." As a parent to a soon to be 3rd grader, you would not believe the comments that are made by parents in regard to their childs intelligence! I hope to raise my daughters to be "wise" and kind and confident, too! Thank you for sharing this! This is absolutely beautiful.

In so many cases, the growing has been beautiful for us. My heart aches that their sweet innocence will be so tested, but I'm happy to say they've resisted a number of things lately, saying 'that's not good for kids'. May the road be safe and smooth for us all. Thank you for the forum :-) Interesting, I am so anxious about kindergarten in the fall for these same reasons.
