The Mine Wars
We're hitting a particularly ugly stage
in our household, where selfishness and jealousy abound.
Maddie won't share her new wings; Cora won't share her favorite Barbie's favorite swimsuit; Maddie illicitly reads Cora's new library book before Cora does, and then admits she did it even though she knew it was wrong; Cora purposefully takes waaaaay longer than her turn on the mini-trampoline.
We're working through this one baby-step at a time. Lots of talking, lots of praying, lots of scripture, lots of Parenting Tools use.
But I'm not so sure we'll all still be standing when this is all over. I just don't see how it's possible.
