In an age where "lets get the better and bigger thing" is rampart, how does a parent instill values and principles in the minds and hearts of their children. That the next toy car or a new doll will not make them any happier in the long run. That "small" can be beautiful. That "humility" can be endearing. That being a child in their childhood is okay and that there is no need to act and talk like an adult before their time.
It makes me loose hope at times. But I am learning to take one step at a time. To respond to a hello with a hello. To remember to thank the birthday girl/boys's mom after enjoying the party she invited you to. To wait patiently till his birthday for that new wonderful toy he is been waiting for. And finding that the wait made the gift all the more wonderful.

ReplyDeleteMom you are a shining star though the world doesn't know your name.
You have no fancy title like Baroness or Dame.
Mom you really are a star, my mother mentor and friend.
A Nobel Prize for motherhood is what I'd recommend.
And if I won the lottery I'd share my win with you
I'd take you Mom on a spending spree each day the whole year through!
You may not be famous, as your face is known to few.
But Mom I think you are wonderful and I'm so proud of you!
