Family Bed Article

We're a family bed sorta family. At one point or anohter...each of our kids have been in w/us...adopted or not.

This is an interesting..... article..... on the subject.

RAD song

A long time ago...I told a dear friend that I love each of my kids enormously and that each one occupies a unique place in my inner most being down to it's very core...but that there is one...who holds a "special spot" in my heart...an area where the others do not tread. I know it's because that child has been used to push me into uncomfortable places. Places that have not always been traversed naturally...but supernaturally. Places I must pay very close attention to if I am to learn the lessons intended.

Oh, when that particular uncomfortable spot crosses over and seeps into the comfortable zone! When growth brings with it.....rest and peace. When parenting feels like the joyful gift it is! When reciprocal love is the reality rather than the ever illusive dream.
