Day 21 – Start in the Right Way

Ever since we found out I was pregnant with twins, we have been looking at how we can get our other children a little more independent. We know looking after twins with three other children isn’t going to be easy. Actually, it’s probably going to be down right hard work.

We needed our children to be a little more self-sufficient. I know it might help me in the long run, but it will also help them. As parents, we can’t keep following behind them cleaning up their messes. They will need to learn to start clearing up after themselves.

So, we started a routine with them. One which we hope will stay with them for a long time. Maybe even until they have their own kids in which they can pass their wisdom on to. Who knows? All we can do is hope and pray that what we teach our kids now, will stay with them and they will not turn from it.

Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it. Proverbs 22:6
