CHOOSE YOUR WORDS CAREFULLY

FOR THERE ARE ALL"EARS" IN THE CORNFIELD! CHILDREN ARE LIKE SPONGES; THEY SOAK UP EVERY LITTLE BIT OF INFORMATION THAT LEAKS OUT OF OUR MOUTH. I HAVE REALIZED THAT MY THOUGHTS AND OPINIONS ON DIFFERENT ISSUES NEED TO BE KEPT AT A MINIMUM. THAT WHAT COMES OUT OF MY MOUTH, AFFECTS MY CHILDREN'S PROSPECTIVES ON CERTAIN ISSUES. THEY "LOOK" UP TO ME, AND THEREFORE TAKE ME AT MY WORD. THEIR TRUST LIES IN ME, AND WHAT I SAY HAS A SOUL AFFECT ON THEM. I AM NOT PERFECT, THEREFORE CERTAIN ISSUES THAT ARE LAID BEFORE ME ARE DISCUSSED AND ARE OFTEN ACCOMPANIED BY MY 2 CENTS WORTH. THIS COULD BE ANYTHING FROM A SITUATION MY CHILDREN WERE INVOLVED IN, TO JUST A GENERAL "FAMILY" ISSUE. WE ARE EXAMPLES TO OUR CHILDREN , THEREFORE, THEY LIVE WHAT THEY SEE. IN TURN, WE , AS PARENTS MUST REALIZE THAT WHAT COMES DIRECTLY OUT OF OUR MOUTH WILL HAVE PROFOUND AFFECT ON OUR CHILDREN AND OUR FAMILY. AND ISN'T IT JUST LIKE A CHILD TO LISTEN TO OUR CONVERSATION'S WITH OTHERS, AND SAY" BUT MOMMA, YOU SAID THIS." THEN WE FIND OURSELVES IN A STATE OF SHOCK AND EMBARRASSMENT BECAUSE WE THOUGHT THAT NO ONE WAS LISTENING, BUT THERE ARE ALWAYS "EARS" AROUND. WE ARE NOT ALONE, CHILDREN ARE EVERYWHERE WE GO, AND THEY ARE ALWAYS LOOKING TO US AS EXAMPLES TO HOW WE SHOULD BEHAVE!
