childhood

Do you remember your childhood? Do you remember things that people told you or the way they made you feel?

The way we talk to our children becomes their inner voice.... Peggy O' Mara

It is important to tell everyone what makes them special and that they are appreciated. For children, it can help them become happy and confident people. I believe that kids want to know they are valued and safe and wonderful just the way they are. 

Please, take every chance you get to let the children in your lives know how much they mean to you. Point out their good qualities. Encourage their interests. Enjoy them!

Remind them also, that all people have good qualities and deserve our respect and kindness. Even greater than our words, let our actions be the example for others to follow. The way we treat our children, ourselves and each other will create the type of world we live in. Let us make it a kind and loving world.
