“By the time our kids are born, the fire is already lit. All we are doing as parents is helping them find the kindling.” ~ The Silent History by Horowitz, Derby and Moffett

I quote this as I celebrate my son’s 1st birthday. He turns one today! Happy Birthday, Noah! The Silent History brings to question many things regarding children and parenting. One of which is the nature in which our children are born. At only one, I see that Noah has his very own likings, his own personality and it is my duty to help him and guide him. I have officially completed my Winter quarter and have a week before I begin my Spring quarter. My fire, as far as I can remember, has always been my own and I have wonderful parents that have always helped me find my kindling. Now, I have a wonderful husband that has taken on the task of assisting me as I assist him.

What kindling do you need lit? Finding this may put you on the road of a happy satisfied life. Have a wonderful day.
