A Sobbing Prayer

Tru was sent to timeout before bed for being defiant. Sigh…
It took him 30 minutes to attempt to calm down from his sadness.
We brushed teeth while he was still crying.
And then prayers…

Tru while still sobbing:
“Grateful I can not have a sad day.
Grateful I can have a great day and a good good day.
Grateful the whole family could eat dinner with me.
Grateful I can not have a sad day.”

Poor Tru.
Today in the car he said, “We can do hard things” related to him learning to put on his seatbelt.
He’s learning so much these days… or hopefully learning at least.
Controlling emotions is often a HARD THING for most of us here on earth.
We can do it with God’s blessings!
