Self Control
”Like a city whose walls are broken down is a man who lacks self-control.”
Proverbs 25:28
Proverbs 25:28
Today’s activity was simple. I took a couple of our pre-frozen cookie dough cookies and baked a few this morning. I then set them out and explained that we were going to practice self control all day by putting these in a prominent place but not eating them. At the end of the day, we enjoyed the cookies together. They did really well throughout the day. They were asking for a bit, but I said if they asked again then they wouldn’t have any. I think it took more of my self control than theirs to not touch those cookies all day.
Love it! I agree with you, I think it would have taken more self control for me to have looked at all of those all day too! We are still working on self control through today and this weekend. I am working on a post all about it and I will link to you too.
