Don't Quit

Have you ever had those days where you feel so frustrated that you want to throw in the towel?? Well, today was like that. Seems as if ever time I told my daughter to do something she seemed to be doing the opposite. Is it opposite day? I guess I missed that memo. LOL

I can remember as a kid how my family just got frustrated and threw in the towel and it was up to us to figure out the rest. This is something I don't want to do. So, I try to remember this poem that our pastor says quite often.

Don't Quit

Author Unknown

When things go wrong, as the sometimes will,

When the road your trudging seems all uphill

When the funds are low and the debts are high,

And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,

When care is pressing you down a bit

Rest if you must, but don't quit.

Life is queer with its twists and its turns,

As everyone of us sometimes learns,

And many a failure turns about

When they might have won, had they stuck it out.

So stick to the fight when your hardest hit,

It's when things seem worst that you must not quit!!

I don't know .... just reading that poem makes me want to stay in the game and not quit on my daughter or anything that God challenges me to do. Every day is a lesson. Nobody says raising kids is easy or life would be so too. But I believe it is the most rewarding job I can do. It may be hard but it is worth it.

She may look like me but she Sure acts like her Daddy!! Hahahaha LOL!!!
