Take me to the water...

Yesterday we got totally saturated at church when the priest threw holy water at us. It was to symbolize renewal and regeneration because it is still considered Easter Sunday according to the church. During the sermon Father spoke of how we could be forgiven for our sins just by asking. Somehow I do think this is in order with me.

In college a good friend gave me a HUGE eraser so I could get rid of the bigger mistakes I would make. Part of it was tongue and cheek, then again a part of me took it seriously. I think when you are a parent (and some when they are simply adults) make a good effort to not make mistakes aver and over again, if at all. When you are a role model you have little eyes watching your every move.

Kids think that as long as their parents do things they can as well. Sometimes they are disgraced by us too and vow to never be like a Mother or Father. I myself see that there are many things I could improve on, and wish that my son would only pick up my good habits, not the bad ones.

As my father has said many times - think of your worst habit, your child will pick that up. Thought for the the day, be the change you want to see, just don't pick your nose while doing it.
