I see light at the end of the tunnel
This past week has been tough because we have all taken turns being sick. But as far as child raring, this week has been the best it has in a very, very long time. Sam has hardly needed to be disciplined and hasn't pushed the usual buttons he likes to push. He has been more helpful then usual and is listening and obeying pretty much right away. It has been a nice, refreshing week as a mom. There are times when I feel like pulling my hair out of my head and question if I know anything about raising three children. I know what I've read in the Bible and parenting books; I know what I observe from family, friends, and out in the public; I know the good and bad from when I (and Justy) was raised. I am amazed with all of that, I still don't "know it all"! I am constantly reassessing myself as their parent. The only way I will be able to do the best that I am capable is to be constantly on my knees....giving my days to the Lord and asking for forgiveness. But these days of "light" are so great and a constant reminder why I love being a mom and so thankful the Lord has granted me these precious children.

Jen, you are a great mom. You and Justin are truly wonderful parents whom have their children's best interest at heart. God will help you parent them and teach you new lessons, thing about each of them along the way. All I have to say is keep up the good work and your kids are very lucky to have you as their mom.
Love,
Kendra
