I chanced upon this while browsing the net.
How To Really Love A Child
Be There.
Say “yes” as often as possible.
Let them bang on pots and pans.If they’re crabby, put them in water.
If they’re unlovable – love yourself.
If they’re not nice – YOU be nicer.Realize how important it is to be a child.
Go to a drive-in theater in your pajamas
Read books out loud with joy.Invent pleasures together.
Remember how really small they are.
Surprise them.
Say “no” when necessary.
Bake a cake and eat it with no hands.
Plan to build a rocket ship.
Imagine yourself magic.
Make lots of forts with blankets.
Let your angel fly.
Reveal your own dreams.
Search out the positive.
Keep the gleam in your eye.
Mail letters to God.
Encourage silly.
Plant licorice in your garden.
Stop yelling.
Express your love.
A LOT.
Speak kindly.
Paint their tennis shoes.
Handle with caring.
CHILDREN ARE MIRACULOUS!
Nice. I think I should read this more often.
