I recently heard a woman say, "I don't want to be a mom to my 7-month-old anymore. I can't stand it every time she cries!" This broke my heart as a mother of two...I just wanted to say, I will take your baby because I would in a heartbeat and I would love her like my own. This baby doesn't understand mom's words but how this mother feels opens the door to the spirit of rejection upon that child. When I listened to the mother's story, she was bitter that she had the entire responsibility of the child and no one to help her. I understand this. When my son was born my husband worked out of town during the week. I had full responsibility for not only an infant but also a 7-year-old. My son would wake up multiple times at night until he was 16 months old. All of which I dealt with alone 5 out of 7 nights a week. It was rough but I did it and I did it with love.
We must be careful what we say or feel toward our children even if they are still too little to understand, even if they are a handful.
