One thing we did at the shower was to have the guests say or write their advice to us as parents, from their experience. Here's what they said:
""""May your new girl grow to be:
- Righteous
- Amazing
- Yielding
- Nurturing
- Awesome and adoring.
- Attentive to God's voice
- Determined to do God's will
- Exuberant
- Loving
- Insightful
- Natural
- Effervescent""""
"""Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. Proverbs 22:6"""
"""Have fun with your kids. It's more important than housework.""" """ Apply the board of education to the seat of learning . . . regularly.""" """If the children need to be disciplined and the baby is nursing - put the baby down."""
"""Our Advice: As we were having children, life never got harder or more stressful than when we had 4 under 4. After that, life got simpler and easier with each new child. So . . . our advice . . . have lots more!!!"""
These are just a few of the many words of wisdom and blessing we received!
