Jack has been at my mom and dad's house since Friday. I miss him so very much. The house has been too quiet. I have not had to get onto AJ and Ben much. Jack is such a spirited kid. I'm working on embracing this instead of wondering how to change him. He is so passionate about life and everything he does. He's all or nothing. I know God gave me this child for me to look after and to raise to be a God seeking adult. I admit some days it's just putting out fires, but others Jack is really intent on learning and figuring stuff out. Mark my words! He will be a world changer one day! (Let's hope it's for good and he's not a rogue military person or something. haha.)
In all seriousness though (because one day he will read this), I want him to know that I thank God for him everyday. He is a blessing to us all! Anyone that knows Jack loves him and wants to be around him (except for his brothers sometimes..ha).
Dear Lord, I
know you desire for me to raise a God-following adult. Please give me Your
wisdom as I seek to become the parent You called to this high honor. Redirect
my perspectives and equip me for this task today, and everyday. In Jesus' Name, Amen
If you can channel all that energy and inquisitiveness there is no limit to what Jack might achieve.
