I think Nate is already showing promise as a lawyer.
Nate (4 yrs): Mom, do you want me to get in an accident and the police to come when I drive a car?
Mom: No.
Nate: Well then... I need to watch Mickey Mouse Club because that tells me how to drive stuff.
LOL!! A very convincing argument, aimed straight at this mom's desire to protect her children. He is good! And extremely persistent.
On the tough side of Nate's "gift" of argument... is the argument part! Phew!
Teaching and trying to mold his heart (his desires and then his words) every.single.conversation all.day.long is exhausting.
It makes me thankful for the mommy wisdom God has allowed me to be exposed to these last few months through a conference, carving out time for reading my Bible, some pretty inspiring blogs and godly motherhood books.
Now just to continue to apply all that wisdom into our days. Not to grow weary, but to press on! Love, correct, love, referee an argument, love, guide, love, cook dinner, love, bathe, read, love, snuggle and tuck them in for the night;)
You will always harvest what you plant...
So let’s not get tired of doing what is good.
At just the right time we will reap
a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up.
Galatians 6:7b,9
