If I Had To Do It Again…

“If had my child to raise all over again,

I’d build self-esteem first, and the house later;

finger-paint more, and point the finger less.

I would do less correcting and more connecting.

I’d take my eyes off my watch, and watch with my eyes.

I’d take more hikes and fly more kites.

I would run through more fields and gaze at more stars.

I’d do more hugging and less tugging.”
