Everyday Blessings; The Inner Work of Mindful Parenting by Myla and Jon Kabat-Zinn ”But to be selfless is not necessarily a huge sacrifice, for the irony is that we may come to experience completion, wholeness, and a healing of our own emotional wounds precisely by tending to the needs of our children in appropriate ways.”Of course, the context of this quote adds invaluable clarity and applicability, but I don’t want to keep typing, I want to get back to Jonny and Aveline (June’s asleep, these are scarce moments). So . . . go buy the book! I promise you’ll be sooo blessed.

Jen,
I bet you would love the book “Relational Parenting” by Ross Campbell M.D. It just puts words into what I was feeling as a parent. You know that feeling of, there has to be a better way! This is how I want to raise my children.
