I have a fun devotion book that we do every night with dd. I've liked the lessons so far, but there is one coming up that I don't really like. I think it will be great with a little modification. Please help me make this more "it's okay to have big feelings" friendly.
Topic: I obey mommy and daddy
If Mommy says, "No!"
I don't go !
'Cause Mommy knows what's best!
If Daddy says, "Stay!"
I say, "OK!"
'Cause Daddy knows what's best!
If Mommy says, "Up!"
Or Daddy says, "Down!"
I do what they say
And I never frown :(
'Cause Mommy and Daddy know what's best for me!
Obviously, I like that it is encouraging obedience b/c mom/dad know what's best (keeping safe, etc...). However, I'm not crazy about the "I never frown." line. How could I modify that? I would love some suggestions! TIA.
