Makaylee's Arrival

Today, God Blessed us with you, a sweet baby girl. You are a gentle spirit and your arrival went as any mom delivering naturally would hope for. I started having contractions in the morning and went to a church luncheon. I got a little tip that pumping would help speed up your arrival and it did. We went shopping at Target and the contractions got stronger, but when we checked into the hospital around 10pm Mommy was only dilated to a 2 and we thought we would be going home. Two hours later they informed us we were progressing and you would be coming soon. After another 2 hours you were ready, but we couldn't find the doctor. Struggling through 10 more painful contractions the doctor finally arrived, 2 pushes later I was holding a beautiful baby girl in my arms.

Parents Why you Should Discipline Your Children

The word discipline has such a negative connotation, but it is really in the best interest of our children to discipline consistantly. Discipline teaches children what the boundaries are so they don't have to guess and they have a clear map to follow. You would never send them into the woods without a map of how to get out. So why send them through life without a clearly defined map? For more tips on discipline go to the Trouble with Discipline
