HOW TO REALLY LOVE A CHILD
Be there. Say yes as often as possible. Let them bang on pots and pans. If they’re crabby, put then in water. If they’re unlovable, love yourself. Realize how important it is to be a child. Go to a movie theatre in your pajamas. Read books out loud with joy. Invent pleasures together. Remember how really small they are. Giggle a lot. Surprise them. Say no when necessary. Teach feelings. Heal your own inner child. Learn about parenting. Hug trees together. Make loving safe. Bake a cake and eat it with no hands. Go find elephants and kiss them. Plan to build a rocket ship. Imagine yourself magic. Make lots of forts with blankets. Let your angel fly. Reveal your own dreams. Search out the positive. Keep the gleam in your eye. Encourage silly. Plant licorice in your garden. Open up. Stop yelling. Express your love, a lot. Speak kindly. Paint their tennis shoes. Handle with caring.
CHILDREN ARE MIRACULOUS

We need four hugs a day for survival
We need eight hugs a day for maintenance
We need twelve hugs a day for growth

If I want it, it’s mine
If I give it to you and change my mind later, it’s mine
If I can take it away form you, it’s mine
If I had it a little while ago, it’s mine
If it’s mine, it will never belong to anyone else no matter what
If we are building something together, all the pieces are mine
If it looks like mine, it’s mine
If it’s broken…it’s yours
