TT: The Duggar Family

I love this family and all I learn from watching them and reading their website. Michelle even has a blog.What I'm thankful for today: some tasty nuggets I found on their website!

1. Duggar Family Top 5 Parenting Tips:
  1. Teach our children to love God with all of their heart, soul, mind and strength, and memorize God’s word together as a family.
  2. Teach them to have a servant’s heart, leading by your example. Love your neighbor as yourself.
  3. Daily read the Proverb of the Day that corresponds with the day of the month and discuss it as a family.
  4. Diligently keep up with each child’s attitudes and actions and ask what is going on in their heart. Pray with them one on one letting them lead in prayer and then you closing the prayer time together.
  5. Ask God to help you conquer anger because it can destroy your relationship with your children. Praise them ten times more than you correct them.
2. Family motto - JOY: Put Jesus first, Others second, Yourself last.

3. They are advocates of the Bradley Method of Natural Childbirth and have had only 3 c-sections (due to breach/transverse positions).

What I desire: to be gentle and meek like Michelle, controlling anger and not yelling at my kids. Jesus, give me a miracle!

I have to agree- Michelle is a saint! I wish I had her patience. She's an amazing mother, really. The children are always so well behaved. and i LOVE that they do Bradley! I saw their daughter-in-law talking about how she was learning it as well. Awesome :)
