"AS I GROW"

[workmom01]

Please..... 

Understand that I am growing up and changing very fast. It must be difficult to keep pace with me, but please try.

Listen to me and give me brief clear answers to my questions. Then I will keep sharing my thoughts and feelings.

 Reward me for the truth. Then I am not frightened into lying.

Tell me when you make mistakes and what you learned from them. Then I can accept that I am Ok, even when I blunder.

Pay attention ti me, and spend time with me. Then I can believe that I am inportant and worthwhile.

Do the things you want me to do. Then I hava good , positive model.

Trust and respect me. Even though I am smaller than you, I have feelings and needs just like you.

Compliment and appreciate me. Then I'll want to continue to please you.

Help me exploremy unique interests, talents and potential. In order for me to be happy. I need to be me, and not your or someone you want me to be.

Be an individual and create your own happiness. Then you can teach me the same,  and I can live a happy, successful and fullfilling life.

                       THANK YOU FOR HEARING ME, I LOVE YOU!!!
