But that is a life lesson that must be experienced. I am a lot more patient about it since I was SO insufferable when I was young. I am not exaggerating for effect. But you knew that. ;)Jamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11049138813340800745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-277361803634899411.post-79203727742714105052009-02-09T11:59:00.000-08:002009-02-09T11:59:00.000-08:00Wait!?

And I also think it's a fine line, defining what a "good" child is and how to get one. It's overwhelming to try to figure it out. I'm so thankful that God didn't give me kids and then just say "good luck with that." He answers my cries for wisdom and that's the only way I do even one little thing right here and there :)Heather of the EOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14607422301391841377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-277361803634899411.post-26344615773845037912009-02-07T17:37:00.000-08:002009-02-07T17:37:00.000-08:00Heidi, we left a dentist who was just rough.

I too knew it all. Now I know nothing, but I feel so much more peaceful about it. I know how to hug, how to laugh, how to listen, how to love, no matter what. I guess I figured something out.

We had heard he wasn't too good with kids--that was the last time we were there. It just bugged the heck out of me that he saw a perfectly natural reaction to pain as misbehavior. yikes! I think there are a lot of people out there who are still operating under that old idea. I am particularly sensitive to what is bad behavior and what is not since I have a child who appears to be badly behaved at times but is simply brain damaged and mentally ill. Not the same thing at all.Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12660156433881882098noreply@blogger.com
