If Your Children are Driving You Crazy

My five year old already acts like a teenager in a lot of ways. My toddler acts like a toddler. It can be exhausting to constantly correct, direct, discipline, teach, answer, and even play with them.

But I have some words of this song, and the story behind it, and then the next part of the story... in my mind today...

"She spins and she sways
To whatever song plays
Without a care in the world...

So I will dance with Cinderella
While she is here in my arms...

'Cause I know something the prince never knew...

So I will dance with Cinderella
While she is here in my arms...

I don't want to miss even one song...

'Cause all too soon...

the clock will strike midnight...

so I don't want to miss even one song...

'Cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight
And she'll... be... gone..."

Thank You, God, for the gift of these children! May I SEE them, and appreciate them, and listen to them, and play with them, and pray with them and for them, and love them well EVERY day, THIS precious day, that You've given me with them. In Jesus' name. Amen.
