You are right in your...Thank you so much, Phyllis!<br /><br />You are right in your point. Of course, I would never say the things that I wrote in my imaginary scenario. Anyone in that case would tell me not to judge - and rightly so, as it's not up to me to decide how someone else's family should look. That's what makes it so amazing that a large number of people throughout the years have said the things in the actual scenario to me, and more! I'm thankful for the grace of God that enables me to just take it and give thanks to Him for His many blessings. I feel sorry for moms who are overwhelmed.Daynahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00421482012113372636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7727294476039920098.post-52245547335578667502011-08-05T12:09:27.837-05:002011-08-05T12:09:27.837-05:00You have beautiful children and love what you high...You have beautiful children and love what you highlight about them in their character and how they came to be in your family!<br /><br />We all have to watch where our thoughts take us and how we judge others.p.s.phyllis sewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16219793386167272107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7727294476039920098.post-67750618751935439452011-08-05T12:02:52.370-05:002011-08-05T12:02:52.370-05:00Love you, too, my network friend! ;-)Love you, too, my network friend! ;-)Daynahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00421482012113372636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7727294476039920098.post-9223463880547481612011-08-05T11:50:36.555-05:002011-08-05T11:50:36.555-05:00Amen and Amen!

Thank you, though, for the reminder that I, too, should be considerate & wise in the way that I respond to others. <br />The Lord once kept me from slaying a lady with my words when I saw her doing the "head count". It turns out that she was grieved over never being able to have children. I was relieved that I didn't add to her grief with my self-defense. How awesome to have such a Mighty Defender in Jesus, Who is rich in compassion!<br />Love you guys!Daynahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00421482012113372636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7727294476039920098.post-27716148103695163562011-08-05T11:11:59.971-05:002011-08-05T11:11:59.971-05:00Dayna.

Cheeky AND thought-provoking. <br /><br />How many times do I do similar things to people with my presuppositions: if only I could read such a well-put-together perspective from other people about my own stupid comments. <br /><br />Lord, help me to be wise in my speech.<br /><br />Great stuff.<br />DaveDavidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14769285584339778504noreply@blogger.com
