Lessons learned while teaching

Good Morning Moms! This morning was a good morning with my little one. Why? Because I was reminded of a principle so simple that my own tough days can overshadow.

He was having a rough morning this morning as he did not want to get up and get dressed. He was sleepy yet he had to wake up. As I am struggling to get his clothes on, he resists telling me that it isn't morning time. I told him it was in fact morning time. He says, "No. I don't see the sun." I told him that he couldn't see the sun because we have not been outside yet. We will see the sun once we go outside. This kept him appeased for a while. He gets dressed, we get outside to head to school and he stops us both in our tracks. He gasped and said, "MOMMY! The sun isn't out. See, it's not morning time." I automatically told him that just because the sun isn't out doesn't mean it's not morning time. And then I explained nature more. He seemed to understand.

As soon as those words left my mouth and I finished my statement, I giggled. Sigh. That was a message of encouragement to me. And I hope it is to someone reading this. Just because the "sun" isn't shining in your life (the sun representing good things, positive things, happiness, joy) does not mean that it is not "morning" (morning representing newness, blessing, life, goodness).

We are told that night only lasts for a short time but morning in fact does come.

I learned a lesson while teaching my son about nature. Moments of treasure.

Blessings,
