A Left-brained ~ Right-brained quiz
Today I thought it would be fun to share a couple of ‘tests’ to see if you are left-brained, or right-brained. Heck, share these with the whole family and see who falls on which side…. the more rational left-brained or the more creative right-brained.
Optimism and The Best
Stop Counting Jellybeans!
This time of year always reminds me of a night before Easter years ago that brought me a most valuable understanding.
Earthquakes, Tsunamis, and Kids
Natural disasters, while natural, can certainly be cause for concern. While the world continues to reel with news of the 8.9 Earthquake and subsequent Tsunami that hit Japan on March 11, 2011, don’t be surprised if your son or daughter is feeling the impact too. Even if you live in an area physically untouched by this event.
With steady news coverage your kids are bound to have heard at least something about this huge event… and depending on your child’s age and awareness level, could be causing them some alarm. I urge you to be sensitive to their concern, honest with what you share and open to them needing a bit more reassurance than usual from you. Continue reading

The Best Thing You Can Offer A Child
Children know innately who they are; it’s something grownups seem to have lost touch with… they have a way of reminding us.
So… how can we best guide them? After all, though we may be on the way back to remembering, many of our life experiences have trained us away from our inner guidance.

What do you do in these kinds of situations? Continue reading
10 Gifts your children will never forget
It’s that time of year when our thoughts turn to gift giving in some BIG ways. Today someone asked me how my life would change if I spent $0 on Christmas gifts. Actually, pondering an answer to this question has brought up a lot of ‘stuff’ for me. While I know it’s quite unlikely that many of us will choose to spend $0 on Christmas gifts… it does seem the perfect time to consider the real gifts you can give to your children… the kind they will treasure for life.
Out of the blue…
Seriously… does anything really come ‘out of the blue’?
Law of Attraction Part 5 of 5
Transcribing these videos has been a new ‘listening’ for me. It’s interesting to discover (again) how much my mind can wander, triggered by what I’m listening to… only to miss some information. Of course, all happens in perfect timing. Which explains why every time I listen to Abraham I ‘hear’ something new and different.
By listening with the intention to catch every word… different things come to light. Makes me wonder if it might not be a good idea to leave a tape recorder running in our homes at different times… and then go back and transcribe what really went on. You know… that morning battle of getting everyone ready… maybe if we really heard what was going on, we could make some effective changes that would serve the whole family.
