The Sudden Death of a Parent
All around us, life and death exist. Sometimes we know when it will happen, while other times it's a complete surprise. It's estimated that 250 babies are born each minute. It comes as no surprise that life and death are inevitable, so long as women are still able to reproduce and men are able to stay just as fertile. The circle of life is truly what it's all about. We are born, we live, we die. Our time spent on Earth varies per person. Some only live a few moments, too weak to survive, while others live to be over 100 years of age, surviving wars, famine, and disease.

Growing up, Getting out, Creating your new Family
Family, the foundation for the next generation of adults. Some people have large families, while others have small families, and some people have no family at all, or feel isolated from them over time. Friends and teachers are the outside forces that also influence much of our dreams and aspirations. Traditions change with the passing of grandparents and great grandparents, family reunions become less and less, so we try our best to create our own traditions.

Your expectations of Child Care. Top Story - January 2021.
One warning I always give any parent who is looking for childcare is that it is crucial not to have unrealistic expectations. Even though you want the very best care for your child, you have to understand that the very best care would be you staying home. Next best would be your child spending the day with grandma or Aunt Suzie who never was able to have kids of her own. If you are going to place your child in any form of childcare, including a nanny in your home, that person is a substitute and will never do things the same way you would.

The "F Word" in Child Care
There are a few words in daycare that providers consider unofficial cuss words. These words are used by parents to get away with the very worst of behaviors. Like using the words “Allergies” or “Teething” as an excuse to drop a child at daycare that they know is not well and should be at home. Another buzz word for us is “Occasional” because usually it is used by a parent who wants us to watch their child for extra hours without getting paid for them.

Embrace Your Teenager's Perspective - It May Be Better Than Yours . Top Story - January 2021.
Sometimes our children are the role models we need. My daughter has astounded me recently. Truly blown me away. She’s stoic, compassionate, kind, brave and rational. She’s 13. Can I at 40 emulate this? I’m not sure. She’s been brutally forced to face her deepest strengths at a time when most are working out their most adventurous backflip off the climbing frame.

My little slice of Heaven.
Creating and utilizing a space to improve your emotional health and allow you to relax is an amazing form of self-care. Cozy corners are also a great way to give yourself an area to reflect when you're feeling overwhelmed or “off” from your usual emotions.

Family Differences
I've always wondered where do I start when it comes to sharing myself and just exactly what is going on. I hesitate at times as I start to feel by sharing my frustrations I may start to sound ungrateful or that I should feel more appreciative of having family. Yet, we always hear and see the statement about even our family can be toxic to us. My family can have it's great moments; where they will help each other out - but it does seem that a few use it to showcase to others that they are good people and that they do so much for others. But more often than not it has been that my family takes advantage of each other; or I feel of my good will nature as I have always been the one to go and help. I have complete knowledge of doing this and do find myself stuck in doing this even when I tell myself I shouldn't. Just as I have the knowledge I have fallen in the trap from being made to feel guilty at as a teenager by my mother for wanting to be my own person and wanting to know my real father better.
