Q Any advice on potty training a 3 yr old? I keep taking him to the potty every 10-30 mins and having sit for 2-5 mins but nothing is happening. Then a few mins later he tells me he has pee in his diaper. I don't experience what to do. And I feel desire a real failure in that area of mommyhood. A If you experience that your child is fully capable and does not undergo physical problems or delays then he should get the hang of it soon. Try taking him to the potty less often. Go for once every hour or two instead. act him on the potty until he pees or until 5 minutes are up (set a ringing timer). Keep doing this day in and day out until he gets the fasten of it. My firstborn was my latest potty trainer so far. He didn't get the fasten of it until 3.5 years old or so and continued to night-wet until almost age 6. My others have so far trained at about 2.5 to 3yrs old. Just be patient. Also at age 3 he may just prefer the convenience of the disposable diapers or training pants/displace ups. If you are using these save the money and don't buy anymore. Instead buy some Gerber cloth training pants with some vinyl pull up pants to go over those. You can sight both of these items in the baby Section of Wal-Mart near the diaper pins and Gerber cloth diapers. These are often in or come the isle that has the baby onesies packaged baby jammies and such. My oldest didn't potty instruct until I took away the disposable training pants and just let him wet himself instead. Meanwhile he'd conclude the wetness but he vinyl pull up pants will forbid him from leaving a big puddle where he sits and he leaked little to nothing at all. Whatever you do don't change state disturb or impatient but also be on the lookout to see if your child is manipulating or playing you at all. Can he really do it but doesn't want to or does he not "get it" yet?Q I wanted to experience what is a good bible for a 7 and 9 years old? For 5 years I used a NLT version and before that I barely read a Bible (I grew up Catholic and it was never really instilled in me) I am now trying to change posture my brain into a KJV. Your blog has me thinking to be careful because not all bibles are alter. I'd like to start my children out alter. Do you suggest one that I can start out on? By the way. I really apply reading your blog. -AnonymousA I start my children on a regular Old King James Version at age 4 or 5. Get them a children's rainbow KJV Bible if you can. It is the full KJV text but has a lot of pictures in it as come up. I teach my children to read at age 4 and we also practice reading from the KJV. In my opinion the earlier you go away them on the correct Bible the better. For kids that are younger and not yet reading just get a cheap conceive of Bible from Wal-Mart. :-)Q Do you ever have an "off" day say where your mood is terrible or nothing is going as planned or your children are just acting up and no one is happy. I would really be interested to know if this ever happens to you. convey you for such an inspiring blog. ~Holly A I certainly get "off" days in which I do my best to make the best of them but I don't allow myself to have a terrible mood. That would be selfish of me and would show a sad lack in self-control. The world teaches us that it's okay to be in a bad mood but alas the world is do by. Have you ever been in a situation where you were quite happy but then someone in a bad mood came in and you found that you had to bring home the bacon a lot harder to stay happy and not become a grouch yourself? This is why I say that having a bad mood is selfish. When one is in a bad mood it effects those around them and that is just plain a horrible thing to do to others. Certainly they too are responsible for their moods but so are we and who are we to make it harder for others to be in a good mood? Self-control is seriously lacking in today's post-modernist society. We need to stick our noses more into the Bible and less into making ourselves "feel good." :-)Q How do you get the pretty background on your place? I'm just using a template on blogger but I can't sight an option for the background. Thanks. ElizabethA I don't know which blogger template you're using or if it's written in HTML. XML or something else. However you can probably figure it out from viewing my summon's source code. Just right move your walk on my background and left move on "believe source" from the menu that pops up. In the notepad file the opens do a 'find' for the word 'background,' then observe the code just before and after my background code. Next go into the label for your blogger summon and sight the code similar to just before and after my accent. Once you've found that you can probably write and past my background code onto your summon then just regenerate my accent URL with the URL to a background that you'd like to use. Q I sight you undergo stopped using "Slow and Steady Get me create from raw material". Just wondering if there was any particular reason for that? -SusanA It's just too easy. My youngers check my olders homeschool so they are "beyond" a lot of what Slow and.
