As you all know, we are a family with 3 girls. This means that Richard is a star at dealing with tears and tantrums and diva behaviour. My sister has just had a baby boy, but overall my side of the family is light on when it comes to the male gender.
That's one reason why we're so blessed to have Cameron in the house. He's modelling a Christian relationship to my girls. He's giving them a day to day living example of how men are. And conversely, the girls are demonstrating what kids are like. And Richard and I are a marriage on show.
Don't get me wrong, we're not all walking around shining our halo and speaking in tongues! Part of living together means we get to see the good the bad and the ugly. There's not much chance to pretend when you're together 24/7. We get lots of opportunities to practice forgiveness and grace. Afterall, that's why we all moved in together in the first place.
