In an earlier post I stated that I never learned to manage my emotions, just vent and spew them. Well, I said as much to my mom in a recent conversation and she assured me that I was indeed taught to manage my emotions. So, then I asked her when exactly I forgot that good teaching. After I was married of course. Imagine that?! I guess my assumption of the filter getting spewed was correct. I don't think my mother reads my blogs but I thought for her sake I'd clear up any confusion or concerns you may have had about my emotional up bringing.
If any of you have reason to encounter the way my beautiful daughter can some times manage (or not) her emotions, I take full credit. Feel free to blame it all on me and teach her any thing you can that is Biblical about how to handle her emotions. Me? Just take cover, silently pray and calmly tell me to breath.

If you can ask your mom a question like that without her feeling indicted, you are blessed!
I sure do love you Robin. You are also a very easy to get along with person with joyful and sincere emotions that make you a very pleasant person to be around :)! Tell your mom she did a good job with that!
((Ms Robin)) you are so bubbly and sweet. I too truly enjoy being around you :) Love-heather
Peace comes from within, not from without. It is a matter of being rather than managing. Until we get there, though, management is an essential art. Management is for the times that peace abandons us or must be put aside for a necessary fight!
You and I have probably not seen each other's worst moments, but a little imagination goes a long way. Still, we are beloved of God, and He's still working on us! Whose hands would you rather be in? (Now, if I can just keep from trying to jump OUT again.... )
