Parenting Part 3

As I am home a lot with Dolores
I have found, as long, as a smile
is given, she will not get restless
Curiousity, studious, analyzing, yet, a baby !

Dolores is now 28 weeks old, learning rules,
sharing our time, communicating without words-
Body + hand jesters, expressions, plus more tools
She's 6 months & I'm 51 years old, learning is a need.

Parenting, so much to explore with children
I'm not perfect +other parents help me, with clues-
The willingness of all, is best, don't give in,
everything a parent does = role model, for childs' view.

Reach out, Hug your child, whenever you can-
Days  are numbered, choose Life, for all to win !

Great poem about the love and growing of a child. This is very poignant, and is crafted like a baby book in its own subtle way. ginga

We all want acceptance, love and attention and affection, it is what makes us grow and thrive, you are doing all the right things, just look from here to three at how well she has grown and matured, this is a beautiful understanding of not just parenting but life and nuturing life, I've often said, children don't come with instruction manuals, we do the best we can but love, that forgives so many of our unintended mistakes..beautifully felt thoughts here...

To have great poets there must be great audiences too.

Walt Whitman, American Poet (1819-1892)
