My husband's aunt sent this beautiful poem to us in our Thanksgiving card and I wanted to share it with you.
My Child
If I had my child to raise all over again,
I'd finger paint more and point the finger less.
I'd do less correcting and more connecting.
I'd take my eyes off my watch and watch more with my eyes.
I would care to know less and know to care more.
I'd take more hikes and fly more kites.
I'd stop playing serious and seriously play.
I'd run through more fields and gaze at more stars.
I'd do more hugging and less tugging.
I would be firm less often and affirm much more.
I'd build self-esteem first and the house later.
I'd teach less about the love of power and more about the power of love.

Aden + Anais Swaddle Blankets and Slumber Sacks
“Trendsetting and award-winning” are just a few of the accolades garnered by aden+ anais for their innovative brand of muslin fabric-based baby wraps. A common fabric for swaddling children in Australia, 100% soft and breathable muslin cotton is featured in aden + anais swaddle blankets and slumber sacks.
Unique in the marketplace, aden + anais swaddles feature 100% soft and breathable muslin cotton which provides plenty of warmth without overheating. Their generous size (47 x 47”) makes them suitable for both an infant and a toddler. They can be used as a light weight blanket, swaddling blanket, stroller cover, nursing cover, and burp cloth. Designed for comfort and style, the wraps are available in a wide variety of colors and patterns.
With a nod to the many stylish design considerations given aden + anais wraps and products, a number of Hollywood celebrities have been spotted using them. These include Naomi Watts, Jaime Pressly, Ashlee Simpson-Wentz, Naomi & Jason Priestley, Julia Roberts, Jennifer Garner, Patrick Dempsey, Adam Sandler and more.
These swaddle blankets are absolutely fabulous. Available at Giggles & Coos in the 4-pack which makes a great shower gift! Swaddling instructions are included on the back of the box!
