From him, she gets his calm demeanor and ability to see a problem and work it out. It's a nice contrast to me, since I tend to be so emotional that I sometimes can't see the forest for the trees. <br />Parenting, whether it's five boys or one little girl, is always an adventure. So much depends on us, or so it seems. For me, when it got too hard, I had to remember that God wasn't just my Father in Heaven, He was also Katy's. And He loves her so much, more than I can ever comprehend. When I was at the end of my rope, He gently reminded me to surrender. He still does and when I do that one simple thing, I am at peace. I'm so glad that you write! Sending hugs and prayers and love.<3Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00909954384428186411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7165957406093577147.post-46005088941693676762016-10-04T07:29:56.696-05:002016-10-04T07:29:56.696-05:00Beautiful, Shawnelle.
