Distance gives us a reason to love harder and one day, there will be no distance between us ❤️
1 year and 7 months apart but the hope to bridge the gap is still stronger than ever. Here’s to fellow #longdistancerelationship couples who are being kept apart for now. The world may come in between us but we’re living in the age where everything is much more accessible. Planes, vaccination, medical help and technology - So chin up and press on my lovelies.
My wife Amilee is 43 years young. There is a 15-year age gap between us.
But she is preserved young so that she can bear our children and be a healthy mother who can actively care for them.
She reminds me of Abraham’s wife Sarah, who gave birth to her firstborn child Isaac at the age of 90. God renewed Sarah’s youth, reversing the deadness of her body and womb so that she could get pregnant and even nurse her own child.
At her elderly age, Abimelech, a heathen king, even found her beautiful and added her to his harem in Gerar. Sarah must have looked like a young woman in her twenties.
When God keeps you young or renews your youth drastically, it will be for a purpose. There is always a good purpose behind His distributed blessings. He makes you blessed to be a blessing to others.
The Rapture generation (which I believe is our generation) will have the grace to stay young and healthy, stopping death in its tracks. That power comes by revelation of God’s word.
Believing in God’s youth renewal promises will cause you to wait for the Lord in tip-top shape, like an unblemished, unwrinkled bride.
Aging, infirmity, and sickness are not for born-again believers. We are under the law of the Spirit of life now! Get “Younger and Younger: 31 Days of God’s Youth Renewal Promises” here: https://bit.ly/younger-and-younger
Halfway through 2021.. (a pretty lengthy post)
It's a time to remind me to relook at my goals and focus again😌 This would mean there will be some changes in my social media content and choosing what is good for me. Focusing on my work, trying to stabilize it and setting out the new plans.
Now when it comes to my kids... at every stage of their life, I'm always learning how to handle them and making changes to how we can all improve. Recently, I have adopted a reward point system, which I was against it previously. WHY?🤔 Because I did not feel the need to reward something which I feel that it's their responsibility or duty?
Sometimes, we do need to take a step back and try if it works WHEN ALL ELSE FAIL 🤣. Like I always tell my kid, "If you never try, you will never know."
So I started the rewards system. Initially, I used an app (@wearesmoresup) that was shared in my IGS, but I encountered a problem. I did not allow my kids to use gadgets, so the app became pointless even though I really love it and how I wish they have web version too.
Anyway, back to rewards, so I set the rules even on basic stuff, so they can feel that goals are easily achievable which in turns helps to motivate them on tougher work.
Steps on making rewards work
1. Give each other a time of adaptation (磨合期), like a week. So you will know what to adjust and the kids know how the system works.
2. Points are rewarded when they do it automatically. Once you have to remind them, they will not be rewarded any points.
3. Be fair. Especially if u have more than 1 child, both tasks and consequences are to set the same, unless the age gap are too big.
4. Encourage them to help remind each other on the task they need to do.
5. Pin it up at the living room or place where they spent most of their time.
6. Give simple rewards, like extra TV time, play time, outdoor activity instead of toys all the way.
I set their rewards according to the points. So whenever they hit the points, they can redeem it. So example:
Extra play time 20 points
Superpark 150 points
Science Centre 50 points
so if they have 200 points, they can choose to redeem any of the rewards above.
Ok, that's about the rewards. Here comes the schedule.
All along, I did the schedule just for myself and one to put outside. But this time round, I made a slight change, I do for the girls too. So each one of them have their own schedule chart. They will have to follow the schedule that is given to them.
It's just less than 5 days of trying how this whole thing works, but so far I have seen slight improvement especially on Xin He. No more screaming at her to wake up in the morning. That's is very important, because we all want to start our day nice. 🤭
When I shared about the rewards and schedule in my IGs, many people has requested for my template, so I have put up the template here lnk.bio/missyqiqi. Feel free to download and use it. Hope it helps, and welcome any suggestions or ideas 💡 that we can all improve together!
