Being careless

Yesterday I was reminded that I have not been insisting on Elisabeth dressing herself by herself. In the morning I often try to hasten the process so that we can get to wherever we need to go, and in the evening I likewise want to speed the process toward bed - and so I help her instead of requiring her to do it. That doesn't help her at all.

So I have begun to repent. She dressed herself for bed, and this morning will dress herself for the day!
