Whew. I would like the person who says raising an infant is hard to step forward please....ok, ok, I know it is hard...but someone forgot to tell me that it does not get any easier. Without going through all the gory details, I learned a hard lesson from an incident at Church this week (yes, it involved my lovely pre-teen)....people will break your heart in a second...even if they are your Church friend. Am I the only one that does that? Puts my Church friends on a higher level than the general population? They are going to fall. I fall all the time. How you deal with the falling is the key. I chose to take the higher road.
I am learning a lesson in forgiveness, as well as, a lesson in trust. I have Cried. Screamed. Cursed. Oh and have been a generally unpleasant person to be around. Why? Because someone was human. Someone continues to be human. I am asking for prayers. Prayers for me. Prayers for my family. Prayers for the others involved.
BTW: I would also like to request my handbook {AGAIN} for raising these boys. Please?....I am still waiting for it. Anyone? Anyone?
Forgiving and forgetting with the Joneses....
