Once she was clearly into grandmotherly age, she told me she made a point of saying something kind to the mothers of young children in church. She knew how frazzling it is, and how most women in that situation imagine they are bothering everyone around them. So she liked to give positive reinforcement that their children weren't being awful, they were just being children, and that they (the mothers) were doing a wonderful job just by having them there.<br /><br />Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08292993485984273172noreply@blogger.com
