My mantra has been "That's how I was raised, so I am going to do the OPPOSITE!" And yeah, it works! It works, because the opposite is what could have been if only someone had paid attention...if only someone had cared enough to CARE. As I mother my rainbow daughter, I stroke her soft cheek and I whisper to her "It will be different for you---because I will make sure of it." And no...I can't protect her from everything; but I can make sure that I'm not one of the things she needs protection from. As a mama, it's the least, and the most, I can do. :o)Sara/Emerging Butterflyhttp://www.reflectionsofabutterfly.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4498980983523584859.post-72748807903205329192012-06-18T16:13:50.418-06:002012-06-18T16:13:50.418-06:00What a beautiful baby - and how alike are you and ...What a beautiful baby - and how alike are you and your own precious rainbow?<br /><br />This was an astonishingly powerful post.
