Purposeful grace parenting






I could have worked like most mums, get a helper to handle their daily needs. I may get the money, status, n work satisfaction, but I will miss their growing up years, the crucial time to inculcate godly values, and to instill life skills in them. Most importantly, I will miss the window period for easy bonding. 

So since I made the choice to stay as a homemaker, I want to have my best shot. It may not be the perfect.... I want to put what I have learnt in practice, of course with real love involved ... What I learnt is kids need strong attachment to mums and I want to establish that during the crucial formative years. I will seize these daily teachable moments to shape their character like Spontaneity , creativity, enthusiasm , the capacity for pleasure , tenacity, generosity, optimism, self control, kindness, patience....Hence, I have to be very purposeful abt it. Years are just flying by, so I have to make sure I dun waste these years....I know I can't turn back to clock.
