Rewards From Him




Psalm 127: 3
Sons are a heritage from the LORD, children a reward from him.

Psalms 139: 13-16
For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;

your works are wonderful, I know that full well.
My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.

Bye Bye Diapers!

Or at least half of the diapers in our house!
About three weeks ago, I decided to potty train the kids, or at least give it a good try. Sophie, who is ever the one to try to please us, potty-trained in three quick days. She was really into it from the start, and was willing to sit as long as I told her to. We also told her she could pick out any toy she wanted from the store. Sophie has wanted a toy baby carriage forever, so we took her to the store and made her drool over it, I mean, showed it to her, and she was set. I also bought her princess underwear that was sparkly, and told her she could only wear it if she kept the princesses dry, because they didn't want to be wet. She is so independent lately, that I think she liked doing it all on her own. Whatever it was, it clicked. And she has been dry all day long since that first few days. Here is a picture of Sophie with her bribe, I mean reward.
And now to get to work on my spunky boy. Who is a bit of a handful at the best of times! :)
