Welcome. So glad you stopped by. My daughter Kelly and I have been through a lot of interesting, challenging and rewarding life adventures. Over the years, we've learned a lot about life and each other. When she was younger, I worked as a nurse...........all the time. The one thing I wish I had done differently was to stay home more, be home when she came home from school, spend more time listening. The good thing about realizing this and talking about it with her now that she is a mother herself is that she can use that knowledge to be an even better mother.
Knowing what she would have liked better, she now has the chance to do that for her own daughter. The good thing is that we are able to talk about it in a positive way. I can look at things as they were, see how I could have done it differently and discuss it with her but then we move on.
This is an important step in the ongoing mother-daughter relationship. Don't hold onto things you wish you had done better. Share in a way that can be helpful to you and your daughter. Praise her for being a good mother and share the good times together. Progress :)
So why this blog? Angel wings and other things? Well this is one of the other things. Along the way, I'll share other interesting things about how we started singing together, started the Special Angel Band and have worked over many years using music to help troubled teens open up and talk about their feelings.
We have learned so much from our work with kids. I've also continued my work as a nurse over the years. I will share thoughts and observations with you and I welcome yours in return. Just remember that we are all here for a visit on the great planet earth. Every day we each have the opportunity to help, inspire and motivate others. Find your wings, brush them off if needed and be an angel to all. You never know what someone else is going through. Your smile may be just what they need.
Until next time,
Blessings :)
