When you are a parent there are many difficult days, days when you do not really feel like getting out of bed to get your demanding 2 year old cheerios and juice. Anyone who is a parent has experienced the grumbles and the “I need a vacation” s. My hope is that this blog can help us both through that time of wanting to drop your kids off at grandma’s house permanently.
Praise parenting is simply praising God through your parenting. Many people think praising God only happens in church or during good times but in reality praising God happens in every moment of your life good and bad if you choose to do so. That’s right it is a choice, just like your attitude (sorry for the punch in the gut). Some of us like to grumble and complain, instead of focusing on the good in our lives we are stuck in the bad. In every situation there is something to be praised and when we switch our focus from what went wrong to what went right here our entire outlook on life changes.
When you think about your kids you want the best for them, you want them to grow up happy and to have their every hearts desire. This is how God sees you. Knowing God and His love for you impacts the way you parent and how your kids respond to your parenting.
I am going to do my best to keep these tidbits short because you have as much time as I do to read blogs and let’s face it we should both be doing other things anyway 😉 Like taking your kids out of that jail you made.
