and it's starting to shake Jake's 'daddy'-being
(starting- because he just started the book)
This is something that has been stirring in our hearts the last few months and of course, the book was plopped in our laps by God at the exact ripest moment
it's called:
Loving Our Kids On Purpose
by Danny Silk
I am NOT recommending it.
I am NOT anyone else's parent but my own children's.
I AM saying it's a good read.
and I WILL say that Jake and I are all over this guys approach/ideas/love for his kids and desire for us to love our kids.
So much scripture.
So much truth.
So much vision for the future of children.
So much freedom for your kids.....and you.
I love it.
For us.
I even downloaded the MP3's of his seminar here. And am loving them.
No really,
it's shaking my heart and I am so grateful.
Neither Jake nor I were at peace with how we were raising/disciplining/interacting with our little girls.
I don't know if it was bad or good....I'm just saying we didn't have a peace about it.
And God has brought some peace through the concepts...through scripture.....here.
Been using the truths all day.
Lydia has noticed and was giggling about it earlier, not even knowing what she was giggling about.
I am in love all over again with my babies.
That 'no peace' thing was effecting a lot.
One day.
Man He can be so quick sometimes!

hmmm...maybe it just moved to the top of my pile ;-)
Just ordered it from Amazon. Wishing I could sit down with both of you sometime to talk about it!
We too have felt the unpeaceful about the way we were raising/disciplining/interacting with our kids and have made some seious changes in our approach over the past several months. Maybe I need to read this book!? Thank you for sharing how it's impacting you. I'm so glad for you :)
I too just bought it, and Priceless. I'll let ya know what I think of both of them!
I read a great review on Amazon, and I love the freedom and choices parenting. It works really well for Seth, and not for Gavin because part of his brain short circuits when he gets upset. I am going to have to borrow Melissa's copy after they are done reading it. :o) I am so excited for you!!!!
