Different

I was looking around for blog topics--because, frankly, my mind is blank yet I want to blog-- and I came upon this one: What my children will do differently.

I believe this is an extremely difficult topic. Not in the sense that it is hard to talk about, but that I just don't know. I want my kids to experience public school, but I really want them to be home schooled. I will keep them in the loop of future technologies, BUT they will not turn into snobs. Granted, not every child that is spoiled with material items, and technology turns out horrible but.....anyway. I most definitely want my kids to do what THEY want, not what I want. Example: Kid wants to be an artist. I want kid to be famous volleyball player. My wish is so not happening. Kid WILL, I repeat, WILL achieve his/her dreams.

Some of these things I am mentioning are things I got to experience. I don't want my children's childhood to be damaged. I want them to get in trouble for jumping on the furniture because they can't touch the ground, I mean lava. I want them to have ridiculous adventures in the backyard with the neighbor's kids. My children will be different. I pray that they will grow up and have the knowledge and wisdom that God is with them, while they have a fun and creative childhood.

I don't even fully understand this topic so let me leave it at this...I want my children to have the perfect childhood they need for their own future. Memories last a lifetime and my kid's will have an awesome one!

Doesn't it say in the Bible to have a childlike heart? Yeah, I'll have one. Kids connect better with kids, might as well have a heart like one if you're gonna parent them.
