Through their Eyes

We had a great challenge from Sherri Stufflebeem yesterday about three things that every child needs when we look at the world through their eyes:

1. Every child needs to know we love them!
2. Every child needs to have boundaries!
3. Every child needs to know Jesus!

Here are the resources that she listed for us:

Boundaries with Kids
by Dr. Henry Cloud and Dr. John Townsend




Parenting is Heart Work
by Dr. Scott Turansky and Joanne Miller
Revolutionary Parenting
by George Barna

Leading Your Child to Christ

    I am going to have to read "Boundaries with Kids". That is always a challenge!

    I think I am going to ask for a few of these for Christmas! They look great... maybe I will have time by then to read them!

    Thanks, Sherri for the suggestions!
