Sometimes parenting can be very discouraging. Some days I feel I have tried my very hardest to teach the kids things that will help shape them into outstanding adults. Sometimes, many times, I feel I have failed miserably.
Once in a while though, something will happen in our home to remind me to keep on trying. Keep on teaching. Keep on loving.
This happened a few days ago when I came into the kitchen and Halee and Austin were having an argument. I asked what was going on and they explained that they were fighting over who was going to get the latest Mormon ad found in the LDS church magazine, The New Era.
I smiled and said.....Duke it out....and I walked out of the room with a smile on my face.
