To be aware of how we as parents sow into our children's life, is imperative for their future abilities to deal with life's challenges, and for them to fluorish. Thank you for the info on Dr Stanley's sermon- I went to his site to watch. <br /><br />I've been alone raising my daughter since she was about 3- 1/2 yrs old. She's 17- 1/2 now. I never remarried (not that I didn't want to, but it is the way it was to be) and my daughter till this day tells me how much she's loved it just being the two of us, since as she puts it, "I can walk around in my underwear and be relaxed." <br /><br />May you and your daughter be Blessed on your journey together.<br />-EllaEllahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09616528514385067161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5777959071118852789.post-38287642648893998602011-08-24T09:22:42.769-05:002011-08-24T09:22:42.769-05:00Thank you for your comment on my blog.

I pretty much raised my daughter solo her first year as my husband was deployed and then he filed for divorce the day he returned so now I'm a suddenly single parent of a toddler. I put up a link on my blog about Charles Stanley's sermon of sowing the right seeds into your children, like what you're talking about here. It's been on my mind a lot lately and that sermon totally rocked me to the core. It's a huge responsibility, and of great importance.<br />God bless,<br />CarrieCarriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17197431919054936309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5777959071118852789.post-36530971139752723042011-08-24T00:56:05.379-05:002011-08-24T00:56:05.379-05:00Angela- Thank you for your comment.

It's very important that our children be able to come to us and talk to us about anything without worrying that we will judge them or make them feel worse than they may already feel.Angelahttp://perfectdrug.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5777959071118852789.post-80725189368786369102011-08-22T23:37:42.893-05:002011-08-22T23:37:42.893-05:00Alvarado- Terrific! 90 mins away is alot better :)...Alvarado- Terrific! 90 mins away is alot better :) given your valid concerns. He sounds like he's a sensible smart young man, and that your talk had a positive impact. You're a very good mother Alvaredo. You are involved and actively participating and teaching your children.

After our talk, he ditched the San Francisco trip and went on a camping trip with friends instead, a whole 90 minutes away, lol.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07925934256050681032noreply@blogger.com
