Love
and Inspire Children and Young People
Youth
are our investment for the future.
Young people deserve
our best.
Infants, Toddlers
School children and teens can all be inspired.
With our conscious
focus and giving our best, we enable our kids to contribute Greatness to our
world.
This
summer we are spending six weeks with grandchildren and their friends.
We are aware that
expanding their experiences is key to expanding their minds.
We understand that
the basics are essential, but even more is the love we share.
We the caring and
conscientious adults need to take the time and energy to care.
Our
usual summer schedule with the kids is noted below.
One of our bedrooms
has two bunk beds and a single bed for sleeping and quiet time.
The children know
this house is quiet, respectful and orderly and so they abide with that energy.
The fun they have is
creative, interactive, learning and sharing with one another.
We
learn from them and they learn from us with easy questions and sharing.
We share our visions
for their futures and offer them expanded ideas.
We create projects
and opportunities for travel and adventures.
Each of us
participates in games, crafts, helping and enjoying encouragement and fun.
Grandpa
Robert used a Mind Movies Ap to help the two girls 10 and 11 to create their
own.
You can see the
amazing creations with choices of pictures, music and affirmations.
They are being given
the opportunity to remind themselves of how great they are.
Our children kids
need to be supported and encouraged to love themselves even more.
Ask
yourself what you can do to invite and encourage the kids you encounter to feel
important.
Look for
opportunities to help, contribute, turor and listen to children.
Respect what
children say and do without comparison or criticism.
Give the youth in
your community and schools every opportunity to succeed and feel good about
themselves.
Do
what you can to care, share, contribute and appreciate their Presence in your
life.
You can make a
significant difference for now and future generations.
You can be the
example and role model for how to have a happy and successful life.
You can show our
kids how to live with respect, responsibility and cooperation.
Thank you for
caring.
