Crawling still gets you there.
My two cents:
And learning to walk, brings greater responsibility.
For the walker
and her mother.

If you want a kitten, start out asking for a horse.
My two cents:
Of course.

Wait for your little sister.
Really Important Stuff My Kids Have Taught Me #’8
If you try to catch two butterflies with one net,
they’ll both get away.
And my two cents:
If you don’t have your pictures
in your hard drive organized,
it will take you 40 minutes to find
that picture of that butterfly.
And when you do find it,
you realize it may just be a moth.

It’s more fun to color outside the lines.
(I think that the human hands would be in the outside the line category.)

If you’re going to draw on the wall,
If you’re going to draw on the wall,
do it behind the couch.
(My Abigail would be the one to figure something like this out.
She is not only super smart, but super sneaky.)

If the flowers you draw don’t look like anyone elses, that’s good.
(I want all my girls to know that they are uniquely beautiful and so are their ideas.
I hope they NEVER try to be like anybody else, even when the color.)
Happy coloring everyone.

and haven’t gotten anything except poison ivy and a sunburn,

Speak up.
My two cents: How else are you going to get your need met?
And, also, if you want to build your self confidence, be confident in what you are contributing to conversation.
Really Important Stuff My Kids Have Taught Me #1
I found a little gem of a book at our local used bookstore and quite possibly one of my favorite places on earth, McKay’s. The book was fifty cents and it’s filled with wisdom. A lot of wisdom is funny, go figure.
I am going to try and share the little tidbits from time to time, and of course, I will add my opinion to go with it.
Just in case you want to read the whole book yourself, it is called Really Important Stuff My Kids Have Taught Me. The author is Cynthia Copeland Lewis.
So on to #1
Jump right in or you might change your mind about swimming.
I live by this philosophy. Sometimes it gets me into things that I regret, but because I tend to jump into it and not look back, I get a lot done.
When you jump in wholeheartedly, you can’t back out. Are you midjump in something that you need to fully commit to?
Me personally, I need to jump into a freezing cold shower this morning to wake me up.
