Train Up A Child In The Way He Should Go

Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.
Proverbs 22:6

Yesterday the little man and I had at date at the Children's Museum in Fort Worth.  He loved it so much that his Poppa and Gigi took him back again today!  The 'tains' were his absolute favorite!  As he was playing, I was reminded of Proverbs 22:6.  

Since my divorce, my heart has really been broken over the path that the average family is on.  God is no longer the foundation of most homes, men are no longer head of the household, and little boys grow up almost 'dis-engendered'.   So, how do you train up a little boy in the way he should go?  I don't know. But my prayer is that God will be Ty's true Father, that he will value and never compromise his masculinity, and that he will grow into a confident man of God.  

As for me, I am relying on my Father to show me how to raise my little man.  Man, heavy stuff for a trip to the museum :)
