How to really LOVE a child

How to really LOVE a child

Be there. Say yes as often as possible. Let them bang on pots and pans. If they're crabby, put them in water. If they're unlovable, love yourself. Realize how important it is to be a child. Go to the movies in your pajamas. Read books out loud with joy. Invent pleasures together. Remember how really small they are. Giggle a lot. Surprise them. Say no when necessary. Teach feelings. Heal your own inner child. Learn about parenting. Hug trees together. Make loving safe. Bake a cake and eat it with no hands. Go find elephants and kiss them. Plan to build a rocketship. Imagine yourself magic. Make lots of forts with blankets. Let your angel fly. Reveal your own dreams. Search out the positive. Keep the gleam in your eye. Mail letters to God. Encourage silly. Plant licorice in your garden. Open up. STOP YELLING!! Express your love ALOT. Speak kindly. Paint their tennis shoes. Handle with caring.

Children are Miraculous....

Too Much TV

Can mush one's mind. My mind is so mushed I can't think of anything to write. Yet, here I go telling the world, potentially, that my mind is mushed. And, do you think the world cares?

Certainly not.

I have nothing more of value to add to this blog today.

New Friendships

Into a box of friendship

To insure that it is strong

First a layer of respect

On the bottom does belong

Then to the sides attach

In the corners where they meet

Several anchors full of trust

Devoid of all deceit

The height of friendship can be measured

By the sides of four

So make them all a larger cut

And the box will hold much more

Now fill it up with courtesy

Honor and esteem

Understanding, sympathy

And passion for a dream

Add to that your honesty

Emotions joy and love

And since they're so important

Place them up above

But leave the box wide open

So all can see inside

To learn what makes a friendship work

From the box you built with pride

Thank you so much for the invite to blog along with you. I look forward to reading and contributing to your blog, and please accept my invitation to blog with me in my blog. Sharing and getting to know you as well as your brother will be fun, He is so nice and friendly and I am very grateful he found his way to me and that were friends. Thank you again and I look forward to blogging with you. ~Lisa/cheesey

Imagine a Woman

author Patricia Lynn Reilly

Imagine a woman who believes it is right and good she is a woman. A woman who honors her experiences and tells her stories. Who refuses to carry the sins of others within her body and life.

Imagine a woman who believes she is good. A woman who trusts and respects herself. Who listens to her needs and desires, and meets them With tenderness and grace.
Imagine a woman who has acknowledged the past's influence on the present. A woman who has walked through her past. Who has healed into the present.

Imagine a woman who authors her own life. A woman who exerts, initiates, and moves on her own behalf. Who refuses to surrender except to her truest self and to her wisest voice.

Imagine a woman who names her own gods. A woman who imagines the divine in her image and likeness. Who designs her own spirituality and allows it to inform her daily life.

Imagine a woman in love with her own body. A woman who believes her body is enough, just as it is. Who celebrates her body and its rhythms and cycles as an exquisite resource. Imagine a woman who honors the face of the Goddess in her changing face. A woman who celebrates the accumulation of her years and her wisdom. Who refuses to use precious energy disguising the changes in her body And life.

Imagine a woman who values the women in her life. A woman who sits in circles of women. Who is reminded of the truth about herself when she forgets.

Imagine yourself as this woman.

Charlie

For starters

Forgive me, I am new at this. Actually, my pesty brother made me get this started. I just want to sleep. My kids are running around the house whilst I write. I should be controlling the situation, but feel I have to get this going for Charlie.
