Wow!

I just read an older version of AGE CHARACTERISTICS OF CHILDREN (found in "Part C: Teaching Different Age Groups"--beginning on page 110) from 1976, and all I can say is WOW!

This spoke to my heart and soul. It is so concise and inspiring. And as I read it in terms of mothering/parenting, I came away with faith and confidence that I can be the mother Heavenly Father intends me to be.

Also, that my cuties are in fact cuties. They are not trying to torture me. They are learning and being exactly who they are meant to be at their respective ages.

If you are a mother of preschool or school-age children (whether you belong to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints or not), you will be uplifted by reading about your children's age groups in this document.

Let me know what you think after you read it :)
