They CAN Be Taught!!

I have to post this before I forget. It's clean-up time around here, and as I work in the kitchen and Ted bathes the little ones, the older three are responsible for general cleaning. Tobin was doing something to purposely annoy Charis, who was in the kitchen with me, and I was in the process of calling out his name to send him on his way to clean.

Charis turned to me quickly and said in a low voice, "It's OK, Mama. I'm trying to have patience with Tobin, and the more he annoys me, the more I can practice."

Oh, sweet Lord Jesus! If my heart is singing at these words, how must your heart rejoice also!!

Charis is a such a dear hearted, smart girl. I just love her. Good for her for not letting Tobin get to her.
