Homeschool Blindspots - the full article is here.

"I am convinced that the most contagious parenting is living a heartfelt faith before your children. Fruitful interaction is not about what you do to your young people, but who you are with them. It's about having a real faith in God, and expressing it in a real relationship with a real person--not about methods and self-working principles. God intends that the side-effect of loving Jesus and enjoying the grace of the gospel will be that all people--including our children--will be touched by the Savior in us."

No words to describe how much this post, First Time Obedience, Really? put everything about child discipline back into perspective again for me.

Sometimes, when one has had an exhausting, trying morning with an almost 17 month old, words of wisdom come as apples of gold on a silver platter.

May I never forget the important things.
