PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

May we be blessed to always show up for our children

In 3 important places…no matter how much they’ve grown

In front of them…to cheer them on

behind them…to have their back

and next to them…so they’ll never feel alone.

Whatever you do as parents remember this one thing

If you please…

How the raising of your children is a lot like planting trees:

You nurture them with your time

your energy

your food

your water

your sun

But it isn’t until years later…

while sitting in their shade

you know how well you’ve done.

Brooke Hampton…a children’s book author

Is where I’m pulling today’s Nella’s blessing from:

Speak to your children 

as if they are the wisest

kindest

most beautiful and magical humans on Earth….

for what they believe…

is what they become.
