There Is Hope!!!

The fighting. Oh, the constant, unending fighting between siblings.

I remember from growing up how normal this is.

But it still drives.me.nuts.

I try and deal with the typical bickering, but degrading words? I will not stand for it.

The other morning Riley was picking on Rhianna.  And I finally had it.

We had a long talk.  Probably according to the child-raising 'experts', too long of a chat for a nine year old.

But I was mad.

Oh, was I mad.

Anyhow.

Shortly after the sermon, I went downstairs to look at my 'to do' list. 

This is what I found written off to the side:
"Hi Mom  I am glad we had that chat I will try to be nice to Rhianna." Your Son, ~Riley~

I think he got it. 

Maybe there is hope.
