Just got back from an amazing mother and baby club session. Once again I am reminded of the utter humility, grace and gratitude I feel at seeing my little beloved Cloud play and seeing the pure joy on his face when we sing his favourite songs.
When he reaches round to stroke my face or grab my hand to make sure that I am joining in the fun, I am reminded that all souls start out this way - loving and utterly benevolent and so compassionate. And yes - so utterly joyful and scampful and full of life's energy.
How blessed I am to undergo this journey of motherhood with him.
I am really hoping to connect with other families through this blog that also want to tread a heartfelt path of parenthood. I am finding, through google, lots of terms for this: Kanagroo parenting, attachment parenting, green parenting. I think they probably all mean the same, undefinable act of trying to connect with your child on their own amazing level.
I have been trying to think of ways to open up Cloud to spiritual lessons, to nurture the spirit that already exists within him. We have been doing blessings of our food with him since he was born, with quite a few lapses. Last week I started going through the chakra points with him, and yesterday told him to open his wings and fly - which he likes.
I'm not trying to force any mindset on him and am just looking for all different ways to expose him to spirituality...
