MY CUP RUNETH OVER.........

I looked at my children today. And as we sat doing nothing extraordinary and realized that "my cup runeth over" with blessings. My children are healthy, bright, beautiful little people who love the Lord and their family. I wasoverwhlelmed with the urge to keep them protected. Not physically so much as emotionally and spiritually. I remember a friend of mine coming to me during the school year last year, and saying her 4th grader had been enlightened on what a certain explicit object was. I thought to myself WOW, 4th graders talk about that stuff? Then I realized, no 4th graders (and any age) kids parents talk about that stuff. They are not concerned with who hears it. Little do they know that their children are then spreading their new found knowledge around school. How am I supposed to shield them from these kinds of things? Am I ready for the world to decide when my children should learn certain things? Please pray for me as this is a daily struggle for Steven and myself as to how to address this situation.
