Potty Training= Headache!

How many parents are experiencing the same thing? TONS.... And what do we do about it? I'm still trying to understand why it's such a struggle for her to go to the potty. Is it because she's still dependent on me? Is she lazy? Does she just want me to change the diaper because she's still in baby mode? I ask these questions because I don't know. This little 3 year old girl of mine can ask for anything and can do just about anything except tell me that she has to potty or even just go on her on. She knows all of her colors, can count to 20, knows her ABC's etc. I thought it would be easier to train her because I stay home with her... NOT! hahaha... I just don't understand! Maybe one day it will happen but its really working that little nerve I have left, especially because I have another little one on the way. HELP:-(

This one is for the men.... Who are you married too????

Is it the Xbox, Your Job, Computer, Work, Church, Or Your Boys?

I ask those questions because that's what most men attach themselves too after a hard days work and its OK but nothing should come before your family. Did you make vows to all of those things? No...... So, We as women and children desire your attention. We shouldn't have to beg or complain or even argue until you decide to want to do something with us. If God blessed you with a family, you should want to spend quality time with them instead of complaining or making up excuses all the time for why you don't want to do anything.

For the record..... When you want to get on top of us and have sex, we are tired too and sometimes don't even want to do it but we do.

I'll talk about me for a moment- My husband loves his Xbox and I don't mind him playing but he sometimes forgets about my feelings and neglects me due to that game and I desire his attention and I desire it even more now because I'm pregnant. That's just one of our issues but God is still working on us just like any married couple. Pray Saints! Lol

All men need an outlet and I'm saying that you shouldn't have one but don't forget about the ones who>>> Wash your clothes, take care of the kids, make sure everyone is feed, make sure the house is clean, etc. We work hard men and sometimes we just want to be held, feel appreciated, loved, special, sexy, and all of the above. If we can boost your ego you can boost ours sometimes. Can I get an Amen Ladies???

Men I know you feel like you're doing your duty by working and paying the bills and you think that's all you're suppose to do... Ummmmm- I hate to bust your bubble but that's not it! Men we appreciate ALL you do but I promise if you make us feel like you care, life would be alot easier:-)


                     

~Twitter: My new Friend~

I just joined twitter today!

I wasn't a fan of it at first but I have so much on my mind or I want to update my status ALL the time so I decided to get one. I love it so far so follow me at Tina_Shines.....

All social networks are not bad so let's enjoy life people:-)

Lesson Learned......

The other day I was sitting here thinking to myself about how when I use to go through things my first instinct was to pick up the phone and call a friend (most of the time) instead of take it to my father "Jesus"......

Since I was a teenager that's what I did until recently God showed me in the most dramatic way that I must lean on him or nothing will work in my life. He put me in a place where I was stuck; I would lean on ppl trying to get my answer on what to do with certain situations and nothing would ever work.

The reason I'm writing this is b/c we must realize who we can and can not talk too.... There are some ppl who have the love of God and who really want to help you get through certain situations and then there are some ppl who just want to be nosy. I'm going to be real when I say this and most of the ppl that were in my business didn't want to help me they just wanted to be nosy.

You have to be able to discern who is for you and who's not..... God showed me in the worse way possible but he had to do it! I loved God etc. but I was so insecure in myself and not strong enough spiritually to understand that I just needed to be patient and pray!

Being prayerful through ANY situaiton is the most vital thing you can do as a believer. Prayer really does change things.... You have to be consistent and believe that God will do what you ask but he's going to do in his timing and he will work on your behalf.

Pray and take your problems to Jesus and don't give the enemy room by telling your business to nosy ppl..... As believers we have to learn how to take control over our own life and stop letting ppl dictate our future. I learned my lesson as to who I should give my problems too, even though I already knew that he was the first one I should go to my flesh always wanted to hear it from someone else.

I was going through something and through all of what I was going through I finally gave it to Jesus because Man was leading me a stray and my flesh was tired so I gave it to Jesus and he spoke to me as clear as day. From then on I changed who I talked too and now before I decide to even call someone to vent ( by the way it's ok to have a trustworthy person to vent too b/c we all need that) I take it to Jesus and by the time I do get ready to call a friend God already worked it out.

I hate I had to go through that experience but God had to show me he was in charge and he did just that!
