In A Nutshell
Bits of Wisdom and Humor
Here are some parenting bits of wisdom laced with bits of humor:
- What is sacred is sacred, and what is is, and all things on this planet
are sacred. (Grandmother)
- If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend
who you hate. (Nikka, age 6)
- Listen to your heart, not your head. HOLD and CUDDLE you new baby
as much as you can. Food ‘spoils’, babies ‘thrive’.
(Barb)
- A mother’s role is to teach her children right from wrong and
to keep them from harm. A wise woman feels content because she has prepared
her children to experience life on their own, and she knows that experience
is the best teacher. (Charlotte Du Brier)
- We’re all in this alone. (Lily Tomlin)
- You may give them your love but not your thoughts, for they have their
own thoughts. You may house their bodies but not their souls, for their
souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even
in your dreams. (Kahlil Gibran)
- We can trust our babies to teach us how to be the best mother to them.
All we need to do is pay attention, starting from the moment we choose
to become mothers during the early phase of pregnancy and continuing
on through the rest of the pregnancy, the birth and the early years
of parenting. From the moment we welcome the pregnancy into our lives
we are already on our way. (Saralee Sky)
- Here I come to run and play! (Crystal Sky, age 4)
