Random Thoughts--Bioparents, Nightmares and shoes

Normally my blogs have a theme and are clear and concise but this morning, I don't have one topic I'd like to talk about but rather I have lots of little thoughts that might interest you reader.

For starters, I just want to say that it does a disservice to every child born to be raised by only one parent. Yes, I know everyone has a story and that not all parents want to have the other parent around co-parenting. However, that does not negate the statement above. Every child born should be raised, reared, co-parented (whichever term you chose) by both of their biological parents.

Next, parents, you don't need permission to protect your children. They were entrusted to you, so make sure you do all you can to keep them safe-emotionally, spiritually, psychologically, physically. My son has been having all sorts of night-mares, -tremors, -fears. It has been brutally exhausting for me because I am not able to sleep while or after he has been screaming and calling "Mommy" and "Daddy". So, it begs the question: What is his little spirit that is keeping him disturbed and tormented in his sleep at night. So, I'll be investigating and praying.

Lastly, how many shoe sizes is my son going to go up in the next couple of months?!?!?! I mean, I just bought him his ever beloved Disney brand Cars sneakers from my most favorite discounted shoe store and his size increased a whole half size in one month. THIS is why I purchase his school shoes from my most favorite discounted shoe store.

Have a great day bloggers. Continue being a Mom. You really are the only one they have...

Blessings,
Aurellia

  1. I had a conversation about point one about BIOPARENT homes. It was intense to say the least and I was disagreed with but I am not offended. Because we both are correct. But at the end of the day, I can not be biased even if the viewpoint I am making does not favor me. That's the deal about truth. Truth is truth regardless of how it makes us feel.

    For example, I oppose Dr. Laura on many levels and sometimes her word is hard...but it doesn't mean she's not correct.

    Jesus' word is hard sometimes...love your enemies, pray for those who despitefully misuse you...and I don't want to adhere to it...but it doesn't mean it's not right and true.
