Dripps Homeschool

When I am having a bad day, I ... try to remember that it is God who is bringing these circumstances my way to refine me, then ask Him to help me cooperate with Him in what He is accomplishing through it all.  I also try to remember that I am actively training my children in how to handle stress.  They are my audience!

When I am about to loose my temper, I ... try to bite my tongue and remember that I am responsible to God for my response.  I ask Him for His perspective, weigh my words carefully, and pray that the law of kindness would rule my tongue.

Our children have taught us ... and are still teaching us how much God loves us as His own dear but imperfect children.  We have learned patience, humility, and discipline by the truckloads and are truely grateful for each one of our children!
