About my last post....

OK! Thanks to all of you for the comments on my last post. Especially those that I love and who know me and my children. I guess I must not have hit on exactly what I wanted to say. I am a FIRM believer of discipline and consistency. If you know my kids, you know that. Jason and I are very hard on them. They have set rules and punishment when they are not followed. I agree with EVERYTHING everyone said....I just think you missed my point. Probably because I wrote a novel and never really said it. Children are a gift. Discipline....OF COURSE!! But, let's don't loose sight of the gift. Actually enjoy them sometimes. Love them like there is no tomorrow.

So....I felt like a comment or two that was posted missed my point. I just felt in my gut that I needed to clear the air!

So am I one of those you love? heehee! I understood what you were getting at and that you have to discipline but I also agree that sometimes I feel like that is all I do. We do,however, need to remember to love and show affection in the midst of it all and I think sometimes people forget this. And much of what I was commenting about was more application for my own life! :)
