We have some ideas, though. Mostly it involves a lot of crafts, some rituals and celebrations, a few ideas stolen from books and good old fashion conversation. Today, I want to talk about talk. I was a cat in a past life. No, Gramma, not real hearts.
Children are by nature eclectic.
It makes perfect sense to them. A friend of mine once told me when I was pregnant and panicking about it, that being a parent wasn't going to be that bad. This may be true but I don't understand computers any more than I understand children. So, I listen to my kids talk and that makes it a bit easier for me to figure out how to talk to them. I ask them about their friends, and what they think about various issues, and what are their favourite books, movies, sports, historical figures, etc.
