It was nice to hear the voices of little children at play, provided you took care to be far enough away not to hear what they were actually saying. ↗
If I had my child to raise all over again, I’d finger paint more, and point the finger less. I’d do less correcting, and more connecting. I’d take my eyes off my watch, and watch with my eyes. I would care to know less, and know to care more. I’d take more hikes and fly more kites. I’d stop playing serious, and seriously play. I’d run through more fields, and gaze at more stars. I’d do more hugging, and less tugging. I would be firm less often, and affirm much more. I’d build self esteem first, and the house later. I’d teach less about the love of power, and more about the power of love. ↗

In quiet times and sleepy times a child can dwell in thoughts of his own, and in songs and stories of his own. ↗
