Mother Nature in our corner of the world
Se'Lah from Necessary Room has asked " What's it like in your neck of the woods?". She's interested in how Mother Nature presents herself in different corners of the world. This afternoon we decided to go looking for Mother Nature at one of our favourite places to go for a walk. We headed off for an all-day vegetarian breakfast first,
and then we went to the cemetery.
Mother Nature was everywhere.
We didn't see any of the squirrels today but we saw birds,
and clouds,
and some big puddles.
There was lots of blossom,
and other flowers.
On the way home there were more things to see and do,
and back in our street Sunnyboy found a stick for his stick collection.
You can find out about the Mother Nature game at Se'Lah's Let's Play a Game post.

and then we went to the cemetery.

The Daily Groove: Beyond Right and Wrong
The Daily Groove from Scott Noelle today encourages us to look within to our Inner Guidance, something children do naturally. As a parent I am so fortunate and blessed to be given such a wonderful example in Sunnyboy, and to have the opportunity to create 'everyday miracles' with him.

:: Beyond Right and Wrong ::
Children are born knowing that feeling good is more
important than being "right." They know their emotions
are their Inner Guidance, and they trust it.
So why do they sometimes rebel and seem to care
more about being right? One possibility is that you
may be telling them something that contradicts their
Inner Guidance.
For example, if you say "It's time to go," while their
Inner Guidance tells them to stay, they know you're
talking crazy talk!
If you say "You shouldn't touch that," while their
instinct is to explore, one of you is lying... and
it's not them!
You can end conflict and transcend right/wrong
thinking by tuning in to *your* Inner Guidance. Give
it some time... The heart is slower than the head, but
it's wiser, too.
If you go deep enough, you'll find the place where
your Guidance and their Guidance overlap -- the
common ground where everyday miracles are born.
