  1. jaw.gif Your how old, OOPS, sorry, and many More


    I tried to do a birthday emotion for each year I thought she was, but the board gave me this message:
    "You have posted a message with more emoticons that this board allows. Please reduce the number of emoticons you've added to the message"

    I guess that makes her old. :bleh:



    Edited: This is Bromatt. I did not realize that Trish was logged in to my computer. :tapping:
  2. try making nap time shorter so he is tired at bedtime. I know its sounds crazy, but my girls began to not even need a nap by this age and we put quiet time (playing in the playpen) into place so that I still had down time and kept my sanity. Sometimes they fell asleep and some times they didn't. We still have them.

  3. We probably all know someone like this. I do too and the Father was the first to stray in the eyes of others. I have a feeling though that they had issues in there marraige before we saw it openly. Our friends have since been divorced and one side is now remarried. They have ruined the christian testimony for their family and their teen age children are not living for God. Don't know what will happen with the younger ones, but it doesn't look good. I really don't know the answer, except that they are still living so that means that God has not given up on them yet. They both also give clear evidence of salvation. I believe we should pray them back to the Lord and even more diligently pray that the children do not fall into the same sin as their parents.

  4. honesty is the best policy here. I differ here as I would explain why. I think I would tell her that mom just found out that I was not dressing modestly and that we need to change now. I think I would let her wear her continue to wear her pants under her dresses though, then it is not 'cold turkey' and cause for rebellion. (we actually wear sweats or leggings under our skirts or dresses for warmth in the house) . At this age, she will tire of it real soon and you shouldn't have a problem. I think patience is the key here.

  5. Yeah, we have an update..... Zach became very restless yesterday and with assistance of course, was able to go to the bathroom on his own. He is now out of ICU and in a regular room still with constant vigil. He is at stage 4 of 8 with brain injury patients, but this restless stage is said to be the worst to get through. I found out yesterday that they have started a caring bridge page for updates. If your interested, here is the link: www.caringbridge.orgzacharyjames If this doesn't work, go to caring bridge and put his name Zacharyjames in. Thanks for all the prayers.

  6. OK, some good news.... Zach woke up and started pulling stuff out, so they sedated him. He does have bad head truma, but the DR. thinks he'll recover from it. They have taken him off of life support, but he is still not out of the woods yet. Thankfully things don't look so bleak now. His brother who I'm told looks the worst, is having a rough time dealing with it all. His hand is broken and is younger than Zach. The oldest boy Isaac is just fine and the youngest, a girl (michalea) is bruised up real well, and I think has a broken bone, but not sure on that.

  7. Just got word that a friend I went to high school with son Zach is on life support. He was involved in a terrible car crash with his 4 or 5 other siblings while his parent were on a retreat 3 hrs away. The others aren't as serious, minor brusing and some broken bones. They live in WI I believe and this boy is only about 7 or 8 years old. I'll post an update when I hear more.

  8. I know how hard losing a loved one is, yet, I know the hope that comes with it when you know they are with Jesus in heaven. May death lose its sting as you remember the victory that Christ gave Stacey when she accepted Him. We will miss her fellowship on online baptist.

  9. Yep, one on one was going to be my advice too.... but I don't get much posting time and Luanne beat me to it. I find that the more I actually "LISTEN" (stop every thing and look them In the eye) the less discipline is needed and the more I can just enjoy my kids. The verse I always find myself quoting is " A child left to himself, bringeth his mother to shame" . It never fails, if I get caught up in something and let the kids just 'do their thing' the house spirals out of control and there is nonstop fighting. If I control where they are and assign small tasks for them they are happier and so am I. Now if I could just remember my own advice the next time I get stressed....... :eek
