I need to remember to apply the power that I have at my disposal. So often I remember AFTER the outburst. Thanks for the verse. I need to remember to apply the power that I have at my disposal.
So often I remember AFTER the outburst.

At one point in my motherhood, I thought I had finally found consistent victory over my sharp, frustrated outbursts. Unfortunately, after we ended up having our little granddaughter living with us all the time, I discovered that I hadn't run out of those outbursts after all - I had just run out of little children. Sometimes you have to imagine that someone is at the door listening! How embarrassing that would have been sometimes.

I hate when a lot of the words out of my mouth are sharp, rebuke, yell, etc. Sometimes they just make me so frustrated when they are being squirrelly and I'm trying to get stuff done. The other night Gabe woke up multiple times and was really whiny/fussy/cranky and I found myself yelling at him in the middle of the night. I was just SO frustrated!!! He did need discipline, and he received it, but he didn't need to be yelled at. I had to get back up after I lay in bed a little while and apologize to him. Sigh. It's so easy for frustration to come out in my tone - but that's not what I want to model to him, you know? Anyways. Glad to know other people have to work on it too... :) I know…I’ve been sort of sobered recently by how CRANKY at my boys I can become!!
