Hmm...another sloooow beginning to a thread. Come on seed, GROW. 

I am known by children as fun and crazy to be around.

When I 'read' bedtime stories to my children I did not rote read in monotone fashion. I was chosen for school plays and asked to participate in theater throughout my years in the educational arena. When Science and Arts were required in the 'curriculum'. I found I liked stepping into costumes of different eras and play acting. I always knew who was behind the mask.

I am blessed as I peek behind the 'curtains' in spider on the wall fashion while my own daughter Sara, 'reads' to her children at bedtime. The animation and expression in the story telling allows me to InJoy the experience as it flows into the veins of my grandchildren.

I shared with some of my heart close friends recently an experience I shared with another friends children.

As I visited with my friend, two of his three children were present with myself and Sommer my daughter. We can be a bit 'tweedle dee and tweedle dum' in our expression.

To his middle daughter Skye, I asked; 'Do you ever watch the 'Fish Ball' in the evenings in the fish pond held by the Fish King and Queen?

Her eyes opening up wider in wonder she said something about the faeries.

I said, 'Yes, of course, all mystical creatures come to this ball. They wear water hyacinth leaves as their cloaks. Feel how velvety and warm they are. Before you go to sleep, peek outside and watch. If you listen very still, you will hear music and see the lights on."

I relate to children like this and even more imaginative stories. They love it.
 
Her dad looked at me and we both smiled in knowing. Aaah...crazy, crazy...the wonder of IT all.

Children love me, 'grown ~ ups' well...

I heart sharing with a Beloved Friend defined Julia's translation of 'grown ~ up'...

"Grown ups are in my definition;  children who think they are grown up and have forgotten the wonder of being a child in the Universe's hands. They've quit growing, they have 'all' the answers so why look any farther?" 

So really, this post is harmless. Just fun. A Pippi Longstocking way of saying, 'Can you play? HEY!! Up here! Come on up!!.." 

Love you Universe ~

Dear Julia,

I don't want to play and you can't make me !

SO THERE - NYAHHHH.

I read to my children every night also - lacking the charisma of your obvious theatrical talents. I would nod off while reading too. Hope it was the thought that counted though.

Fun - play, the greatest spiritual teachings came from this form of sharing with my kids. Looking for fairies, fighting off trolls and orc's in the deep woods. Running from
our imaginations.
I read " A Hobbits Tale " to them when they were young, and what great games it birthed for them out in the woods and the creek everyday. I do not get there as often with the grand daughters. Seems they are always on the move with their Mom.

Reading stirs them to inner realities, playing with them stirs them to resolve to keep the child alive. Since those days I must own that I have not played as I once did. They say it is old age, but ' they ' say alot of things.
The kids truly are so busy in life, or glued to their techno baby sitters. My eldest sons daughters are always in front of the TV, and my daughters limits her kids television, but never lets them sit still.

Adrian and I once talked of the differences of then and now - being children. My what a difference a generation makes. I also had a paper route that got me out before sunrise - flinging the papers was done on auto pilot as I watched the skies and the things awakening every morning. I learned to appreciate winter also this way.
" Its just weather " I would always tell the kids, you won't melt or freeze. just grow like the little plants that you are.

WithIN Love

Hi Darrell ~ 

I believe it counts. I also experienced falling asleep moments while reading to my children. It was when they went through the phase of choosing the very same story for months.

I kept offering other stories but no. Months of the same story is a wonderful way of experiencing deep sleep and talking in ones sleep! And no skipping parts either!! The page gets turned right back and pointed at! Plus they do wake you up when you fall asleep. They pull your eyelids open!! At least mine did.

I also chose books that were considered above the reading level for their age so it would be a stretching of their minds. Reading allows one to use ones imagination. Illustrations can assist in the ongoing drawing of the story in ones mind.

The everyday things we sometimes overlook return in surprise moments when our children share their fondest memories or memorable moments they enjoyed with us. I also enjoy observing the impression in them when they are doing these things for my grandchildren. It's wonderful.

Thank you for playing along!

Love to you and All Always ~

Hi All, Just nutkins or munchkid`diddles here ~

Seeds. mmm... some were planted straight into the earth. some well, must be murdered. Yes.

Hard to digest really...

Amma, how does one eat a seed. In many ways, Directly, to the side as in being carried on wind and web and such. And then there is the hard seed, hard head. Suck on it. Moisture softens.

Well, some seeds are meant to be direct sowed. Some are meant to be sowed in certain times and some cannot be sowed at all.

They must be transplanted...

There is a story brewing here...

A seed growing here...


Mhmm... I stretch my arms, legs, point my toes and hands and tilt my head back. Aka... Full Body

InJoying the Whole Experience,

Julia

[juliainkc]

Okay Everyone ~

Let's play.  I was just recalling this morning with Sommer how when things were getting a little bit too serious around here I had an 'inspiration' in the midst of one such 'episodes' years back when my girls were in the 'wonderful' throes of pre-menstrual adolescence.

Talk about a walk in the park. I was buried!! In one such moment, I said, 'That will be enough!! No one is allowed to laugh in this house ever again while smiling!' They stopped looked at me and started brow knitting when they began to laugh and I said, no smiling while laughing!!

Turned into a hilarious on the floor rolling in laughter at ourselves.

Try it, I dare you. Try to laugh without smiling. I am open to hear of your experience of this.

Love you All ~

Julia

[HareOm]

it is admirable to amplify courageous wholesomeness

[juliainkc]

So tonight said Beloved Child comes to me while in the midst of typing to Louis and says, 'I gotta show you this song!! I have got to bring it up because I really want you to hear IT and the Lyrics too.

My little wizard zips and sings and this is what she shared with me. Why? Because she can... My daughter Loves me. Truth.

Listen with me and give your counsel to me as in what do 'think' she is trying to tell me? Mmm?!?

I really appreciate the responses to this link she brought up. Sara is my quiet baby. She was very loud in her insistence here. Truth.

Grow along with me, toss your two cents in... the best is in the mix. Yet to be...

Ahem!! Laura? Is this working?...

[Mina-Laura]

Ahem!! Laura? Is this working?...

lol... Julia I have no idea what you think your Beloved Child is trying to tell you.

But I am more than certain that is a 'message' she is feeling and wants to 'share' her feeling with you. I would be just happy that she is opening a 'way' for communication - communication 'Sara style'...not Julia style. So... beloved sister how loving are you..hmm?.. how willing are you to leave all of Julia's 'play' thing aside and enter into Sara's world? ..to just 'listen'... to let the child feel she is 'heard'...
before she will fly away and by the time it dawns on you it will be to late??

(just listen)

love you Julia

[juliainkc]

Hello HareOm, Laura and All ~

HareOm, Namaste for your loving words.

Laura, Namaste for your loving words. I was asking you if the link was working too since my thumbs got in the way in another link.

I do appreciate your sharing here as a fellow mother of daughters. We learn so much about ourselves from our children.

Actually, I was 'accused' of being the kind of mother who gave way too much rope to her children. Always watchful and when necessary would give the signal to bring it in a bit but allowing for the 'mis-steps' and tumbles. Not being lenient in some things as in my daughter's traumatizing experience at age 12. I wouldn't allow them to be 'dropped off' at the mall to watch matinees with boys in a dark theater unattended as were some of their girlfriends and I was big on speaking to parents in regards to overnights and such. Hence, the disciplinarian. I spoiled their idea of fun at that age! "Mom!! But why Mom!! Everybody's else's mother lets them do it!! "Mhm. Well, I am not everyone else's mother." I was called, unfair, mean and yada, yada....

I truly was baffled at my daughter's acting out because I had asked her if something of this nature had transpired (intuit) and she my quiet baby, said no. Too afraid to lose favor with dad.

This song was being sung to me by my daughter while I posted the link here. I love hearing what others see and hear, it grows my picture.

What I heard from my daughter to me was in her way of communicating style with me, subtle yet always clear, she was thanking me for keeping the faith in her even though there have been many times where her decisions created hard lessons for our entire family and it was 'Mom' (being led by an UnSeen Hand) who kept on by staying on the Higher Path by walking through the shit with my children.

The Highs and the Lows and everything in between. Life. ~

I had to keep going, one step at a time for what is called 'my children'. And I had my moments when after the children went to bed. I helped myself to tears and two or three glasses of wine to drown the sorrow. I had no support via family, no husband and friends who were supported by family who did not understand what a struggle was.

What 'surprises' me in moments like this is that anyone was even paying attention. This is one of the greatest joys a parent can experience. Appreciation.

I am quirky in my ways and I am no different here than I am anywhere. My girls laugh at what I write in here sometimes and they say,
'Oh my god mom, they don't know you like we do." I say, "well, they are getting to know me now!"

Her from no hope to hope shared with me. The words that really spoke to me in this dedicated song by my Beloved Child to her 'Mother' was:

"Now that the world isn't ending, It's Love that I'm sending to you."


I can live in peace with that in this moment. Yes Laura, I agree, it really is about listening.

Thank you Sara, I love you too. ~

I love you and All ~

Julia

[Mina-Laura]

That was beautiful Julia

I can totally relate to everything you just said. I also have no support (at least not material from anyone) but from God. Strangely at some point that proved to be enough - even in the face of math $ not adding up!!

It was very extremely moving nice and emotionally mature of Sara to let you know of her love even if she feels it comes to nothing compared to yours, or rather that she is afraid you won't think much of her love in the face of the sacrifices you made.

As I said "before is to late" all that matters is love, and for mothers or fathers how much testing that love can endure, at least this is what I come to understand.


love - Laura

Is a very emotionally charged response.
Indeed...

We Belong to the sound of the words
We've both fallen under
Whatever we deny or embrace
For worse or for better

and what did she say back? (lol this is better than a soap opera )

love you

[juliainkc]

Her, aahh.. mmm..


Pat Benetar ... We Belong Together

Placing all places... As ONE... Does your what you say, see, do is what you get in return... you know what?

Ideas leave not their Source, you cannot outgive the 'God' definition you give to... OMG!! I'M the CAR...Duh?

I Truly apologize to you Laura for my pro (before) nunciation,,,, defintion.. I AM...


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Mina-Laura]

Julia my darling

I learned one thing from my Mom. To not tell my children 'we belong together'. As much as it may cause (my) anxiety... and that is simply because I ow them their freedom. After they see the Light they 'know' ..
In the mean time...

Whatever we deny or embrace
For worse or for better

In the mean time I'm here for them to serve them as best as I can.

love - Laura
