I’m quite sick but an advantage of having 9 years’ worth of rambling is that I can always go snitch something from a newsletter if I want to post quickly and go crawl off to bed. Here’s a little something in that spirit!
A few good quotes about parenting….
"You should study not only that you become a mother when your child is born,
but also that you become a child."
— Dogen
"Don’t throw away your friendship with your teenager
over behavior that has no great moral significance.
There will be plenty of real issues that require you to stand like a rock.
Save your big guns for those crucial confrontations."
— Dr. James C. Dobson
"Parents are often so busy with the physical rearing of children
that they miss the glory of parenthood,
just as the grandeur of the trees
is lost when raking leaves."
— Marcelene Cox
