Greatness: Do you see the greatness in others and not in yourself?

How do you see yourself? Do you sometimes think “Oh, it’s easy for this one or that one because they’re so talented? If I had their talent I could do wonders or I could be as great as they are.”

You can be as great. But great in your own talents and abilities if you only took the time to look at yourself and appreciate the gifts and hidden and unexplored talents in you.

Sometimes society judges talent by the mass of one’s followers, fame and dramatic accomplishments.… Continue

About the Octotoplet mom or whatever their calling her

Basically I was as interested in this mom and calling her crazy with the rest of the world. My mom was pretty much saying "I wish they would leave her alone." Finally I'm hearing all these stories that basically this woman loves her kids but she desperately wants and craves this attention. We do in fact need to stop judging this woman because whatever we think of her ceases to matter as in that whoever really is responsible for these kids, the mom, grandparents, dad and Child services will step… Continue

Morning Sickness - What to Eat

Try to avoid fatty foods, as they take longer to digest, especially during pregnancy. Rich, spicy, acidic, and fried foods can irritate your stomach and cause heartburn. Other foodstuffs to avoid are high fat and seasoned food as both smelling and eating these items can increase your nausea levels. Caffeine intake should be low due to the stimulation of the gastric secretions and strong vegetables such as Brussel sprouts, and broccoli should be avoided because of their strong smell when… Continue

Intentional or intensive parenting?

I'm enjoying a moment of tired children and early bedtimes. Yes, I was gifted with an unexpected 30 minutes of quiet this evening and had the pleasure of exploring the website Babble. There are some interesting parenting articles there, but tonight I had the unfamiliar pleasure of finding a provocative parenting article.

The author, Katie Allison Granju, articulates the dichotomy of modern day… Continue

How to effectively praise your child

We all want our children to feel successful, capable, and confident. Children look to the adults in their lives for emotional cues, beginning as infants.

She is a mother of six children, the last of which has recently become independent and moved away. This has, like so many other couples, left my parents with nothing short of a canyon between them and not much to fill the void. When I was a child, my mother was my world. She was young, beautiful, energetic, funny,… Continue

The Ins & Outs of Blogger Events
