"Some great insights so far.
-When you or your child start to lose control a little bit and raise voices, say, "Let's start over," and say the same thing more respectfully again.
-Always apologize to your child when you have done something wrong.
-Have a 5-faceted review with your spouse each month where you talk about each child and how they are doing physically, mentally, socially, emotionally, and spiritually." — May 28, 2019 06:23AM

“Writer's Resolution
Enough's Enough! No more shall I
Pursue the Muse and scorch the pie
Or dream of Authoring a book
When I (unhappy soul) must cook;
Or burn the steak while I wool-gather,
And stir my spouse into a lather
Invoking words like "Darn!" and such
And others that are worse (Oh, much!)
Concerning culinary knack
Which I (HE says) completely lack.
I'll keep my mind upon my work;
I'll learn each boresome cooking quirk;
This day shall mark a new leaf's turning...
That smell! Oh Hell! The beans are burning!”

“Every heart sings a song, incomplete, until another heart whispers back. Those who wish to sing always find a song. At the touch of a lover, everyone becomes a poet.”
