Thanks for taking the time to encourage me. It's nice to know that I'm not alone. And, yes, I should focus on the good things they pick up from me as well...

So true! Homeschooling might prevent our precious babies from picking up the "not-so-great" habits of the 30 other kids in the classroom, but it doesn't stop them from picking up ours. (And aren't we glad that there isn't 28 extra people's bad habits to choose from? LOL)

My husband and I often see our "less-then-stellar" traits in our children. I often say that I'm the type of person who needs God to "hit me over the head with something" before I'll "get it." Seeing some of my behaviors in my children is always a huge "whack" for me.

Oh I so hear you!!! I see all my bad traits very clearly in my poor kids, some of them were really rotten luck to inherit... and as I write that I think - hmmmm I never blame the good traits on me!!! There is a lot of good in them but we tend to focus on the bad!!! Isn't it so much easier to see others faults!!! Hope your routine boat doesn't get too rocked this week!!!
