The comments of an experienced mother:

“Before I got married, I had six theories about bringing up children…

Now I have six children and no theories!”

Thought for the day
“God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble”  1 Peter 5:5 CSB

Pride repels God’s grace, but humility attracts it. God wants to pour his grace into your life, but he won’t do it as long as pride is in the way. So you have to humble yourself and confess your inadequacy.
