wise word

1. My hands are small; please don't expect perfection whenever I make a
bed, draw a picture or throw a ball. My legs are short; please slow down so
that I can keep up with you.

2. My eyes have not seen the world as yours have; please let me explore
safely. Don't restrict me unnecessarily.

3. Housework will always be there. I'm only little for a short time, please
take time to explain things to me about this wonderful world and do so
willingly.

4. My feelings are tender; please be sensitive to my needs. Don't nag me
all day long. (You wouldn't want to be nagged for your inquisitiveness).
Treat me as you would like to be treated.

5. I am a special gift from God; please treasure me as God intended you to
do, holding me accountable for my actions, giving me guidelines to live by
and disciplining me in a loving manner.

6. I need your encouragement to grow. Please go easy on the criticism;
remember, you can criticize the things I do without criticizing me.

7. Please give me the freedom to make decisions concerning myself. Permit
me to fail, so that I can learn from my mistakes. Then someday I'll be
prepared to make the kinds of decisions that life requires of me.

8. Please don't do things over for me. Somehow that makes me feel that my
efforts didn't quite measure up to your expectations. I know it's hard, but
please don't try to compare me to my brother or sister.

9. Please don't be afraid to leave for a weekend together. Kids need
vacations from parents, just as parents need vacations from kids


10. Please take me to GOD' house regularly, setting a good example for me
to follow. I enjoy learning more about God.
