As Si approaches his 2nd birthday (Aug. 26), we are noticing more and more how quickly he his developing. New words fill his speech each day, which can be a blessing and a struggle.
When we don't take the time to correct him in love, we find he often later mirrors us by spouting out "No!" or "Stop!" when he feels threatened.
However, in God's grace, when we're able to train Si in love and patience, we notice his mirroring to reflect phrases such as "Thank you." "Please." and "God bless you."
Though it seems easier to notice with little children, we can't help but notice we also mirror (if ever so subtly) the attitudes and deeds that we allow ourselves to be subject to.
We pray for wisdom.
