Monday's Quote of the Week: How to make your dreams come true

I tracked down the author of this bit of wisdom, Greg S. Reid.  I don't know who you are, sir, but you are very wise with this thought! 

What dreams do you have in your life?  How can you break those down into goals, plans and steps so that they become your reality?

Monday's Quote of the Week: On listening...

Y'all, I can practically promise that if you listen to their little things (which aren't little to them) they will come to you with their big things also because you will have proven to them that what matters to them matters to you!

Monday's Quote of the Day: Don't Be a Hug Quitter!

I love the last part of this quote... you never know how long they need it.  But they know... so just be there, give them time to get what they need from your hug!  It always surprises me, I may expect a quick 'good night' hug but sometimes they linger, they just need a little more hugging... it often opens up an opportunity for them to talk to me about what's on their minds.  Don't be a quitter! 

Monday's Quote of the Week: Tone Matters

Ouch!  

Are our words spoken with love?

Are they kind?

I can't think of anything I could ever say to a child that could not be spoken with love and kindness.  And it's not just our words, but our tone.  Let's love with our voices too!
