I really try to be a good mom. I take literally 2 Timothy 3:16 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness. So when the girls started fighting over who got what first over EVERYTHING…who got to go outside first, who got in the car first, who got a drink first, etc. I figured I would try out Matthew 20:16 the last shall be first, and the first shall be last. I knew they might not grasp the full meaning of the verse but I thought it might instill a bit of unselfishness.
But the other day? The four of us went to the mall and we’re parking. The girls are unbuckling in the back, arguing about getting out the door.
Lexi: “I want to be last!”
Emma: “No I want to be last!”
Lexi: “Mommy said the last will be first so *I* want to be last!”
I’m trying, people. Really.
