Give yourself a pat on the back....you deserve it! :)Sylvia Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11838856187390131213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-209373291915349097.post-17410212011112532712007-12-05T09:27:00.000-06:002007-12-05T09:27:00.000-06:00Good Morning Miss Tonya!!!HAPPY NEWS!!!

Thank you so much for entering ... please email me with your address so I can send off your gift. :)<BR/><BR/>Yes, I do love Enya ... she has such a soothing voice and composition to her music. I do not own any of her discs but I should. Perhaps I will have to ask Santa for one in my stocking! :)<BR/><BR/>I sure do hear your concern, frustration and sadness in regards to your children. We have dealt with situations that just break my heart ... and reduce me to tears ... over the cruel ways of some children today. It just seems like this world gets increasingly negative in certain aspects. It's a tough place for kids ... but I'm almost certain my parents said the same thing. It's just not how it was when WE were growing up. Sure, we had our share of bullies and misery after all ... and I know my mother worried equally as much as I do.<BR/><BR/>Keep talking to your kids ... teaching them how to be kind but NOT become a door mat. I believe in turning the other cheek most of the time, but I do have to say ... it's not always appropriate, either.<BR/><BR/>Hugs for you, sweet friend. Your a great Mommy!!! :)<BR/><BR/>xo,<BR/>DanaDanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11685749277873201225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-209373291915349097.post-36305249828587306792007-12-04T10:14:00.000-06:002007-12-04T10:14:00.000-06:00Tonya, I LOVE Enya too!

We all need to be more relaxed and soak up the moment ~ It is so hard for children to deal with the ugliness that is out there. To strike a balance between being above acting ugly back to these children and also not tolerating too much either. Kindness truly does go a long way!
