Life Lessons: Parenting Fun

Proud of my son's reaction to a surprise and difficult situation this last weekend. He honestly accepted responsibility when appropriate, and honorably refused to lay blame to his friends. He has learned great lessons from the situation, and I trust his decision making skills even more after seeing his response.

Teaching the kids to read and ace math exams is the easy part. Teaching them to be honest and honorable is hard. I sure love being this kid's father.

Sounds ominous and exciting all at the same time. It is indeed a challenge with so many blessings both now and in the years to follow to raise a child. Such a rewarding experience. Love, Mom

Definitely not ominous, but rewarding to see Isaac's response during a valuable learning situation.
