Sweet tiny Natasha!

I have heard it said that,

Children don’t care how much you know, 

until they know how much you care! 

I have found this to be true even with older kids. When my children are struggling and I just want to fix everything.

I tell them all of the things I know about how to fix their problems.

Really, what they want is to know that I am there for them, loving them and caring about them. If they want to know how smart I am, they will ask.
