The more I spank the worse he ...Ethan is like that. The more I spank the worse he got....cuddling ALWAYS did the trick with him but it took me 6 years to figure it out. Now, the other kids....it isn't so hard. I can look at Cass sternly and she will comply, I can say TANNER JACK to the oldest and he knows better. I haven't figured out our little darling....he will be a challenge.<BR/><BR/>CeCeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31037058.post-61231085805096056802007-08-24T18:49:00.000-05:002007-08-24T18:49:00.000-05:00Bless your heart.......how often are we all there?...Bless your heart.......how often are we all there?!!! I just was, this moment! Anna bit Justin, he's crying, holding his broken flesh, and I had to spank her (serious offense in our book). Her cry and remorse broke my heart...and all she wanted was for us to love on her, after she told him 'sorry Bubba'! She needed the reassurance that we still loved her, despite what she'd done and the 'earned' consequence! Broke Justin's heart too! Look how God daily reminds us of how He feels as He parents us!!<BR/>I will often walk away a minute, pray, count, scream, or cry.....and then try to return to the situation calming!! And, I also sing hymns!!!<BR/>You are doing a great job!<BR/>xo,BAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
