Where are my boys?



We seem to have lost our boys to the Galactic Republic. If anyone sees them please return them... the only boys that keep running around here are stormtroopers. Now that spring is here they can finally play their war of good vs. evil outside. May the force be with them.
If I had my child to raise all over again,
I'd build self-esteem first, and the house later.
I'd finger-paint more, and point the finger less.
I would do less correcting and more connecting.
I'd take more hikes and fly more kites.
I'd stop playing serious, and seriously play.
I would run through more fields and gaze at more stars.
I'd do more hugging and less tugging.
I'd see the oak tree in the acorn more often.
I would be firm less often, and affirm much more.
I'd model less about the love of power,
And more about the power of love.
